if that same statement was applied to the cuts for the national park service, what do you say? what do you say to that and to the sentiment that the national parks can can do enough with less? >> they can't. and they've already been doing a lot with less. since 2010, the park service has been understaffed by 20%. and let me give you another statistic. 1/15 of 1% of the federal budget is how much the park service costs. it's peanuts. it's not very much money, and it contributes the entire park system. contributes $55 billion to the economy. so. an understaffed, um, unwelcoming park system this summer could really harm our economy and local communities. and we call the communities right outside of parks, gateway communities. all of these places could feel the ripple effect of having an understaffed park. so we don't think there's any efficiency here. we think it's a terrible economic decision. and we think since parks have already been understaffed for the last 15 years, this is really not going to help this situation. it's just going to make it worse. >> mhm. kristen bell, thank
