>> percival, i have to acknowledge the birmingham metro area, it's something we have picked up on. i personally am on things heading in that, when you have a state like alabama doesn't get that rule, we have to be creative in finding ways to support not only local unions but local community and give everyone access and opportunity. this local ordinance we believe creates an equitable playingg around f for hiring local talent as well as supporting our local union to be at the table when tax dollars are given to those in the construction industry and etc. a city like birmingham with its history is not doing everything they can to be intentional, not only supporting union butut loc. we missed the mark so this local orphan flaw, we believe other cities by the way have done birmingham this trajectory and make sure everyone is at the table ands participating in locl dollars are being given out. i think we need to add on this infrastructure knowledge to the city of birmingham, from the competitive view, we have to make sure local unions are at the table. >> thank you. we are starting to g
