Isn't it true that 95 to 98 percent of the fraud in California was not from the regular, the regular unemployment program that you administered, but actually from the specially created pandemic unemployment assistance program created by…

We are trying to do everything we can to phase it out, to get rid of it. It is not good for our workers, not good for workers with disabilities.

Here is what we have. We had a special unemployment program set up for the pandemic, the worst crisis in 100 years. And a lot of things went well and a lot of things didn't go very well.

We are going to be with you every step of the way until all of this is fully implemented.

We want to make sure that we can have the elements of those energy products, the content of them, made in America.

I appreciate that, and I want to salute you and your team on the great success you have had in providing better taxpayer service this year.
