I don't have that number. Like I say, we ran about 300 different iterations of different formulas. I will get the Senator that number. But there is 3 years hold harmless in this. You are talking about 5 years hold harmless. Hold harmless means that the dollars don't follow the person, that the State gets the money even if they have run out of people with HIV/AIDS, and if there are decreasing numbers of them they should not continue to get those dollars. What you are asking is we continue to give those dollars even if we run out of people. All we are trying to do with this bill is make sure the dollars follow the person. You get more people, you get more money. You get less people, you get less money. It is take care of the people. It is not an economic development bill.
