00:00Go ahead.

00:01Okay, thank you.

00:02And now that the big, beautiful bill has passed, are 287-G officers in Florida expect to get

00:07any sort of funding increases?

00:09Well, we'll look at how those agreements are set up.

00:12Each 287-G contract is different according to, you know, which law enforcement entity

00:19it signed the contract with.

00:20So many of them have financial resources.

00:23There will be more resources going into the program.

00:26I can't speak specifically to one agreement or another, but if you have one that you're

00:30curious about, I'll get you the details on it.

00:32But we have over 800 different 287-G contracts now signed across the country with either local

00:39law enforcement, sheriff's office, city, or state entities.

00:43That has been fantastic.

00:45That helps us build out our support and helps us build out our numbers so that we can conduct

00:50these operations and do it in a way that we've got our law enforcement back to.

00:54And you had one.

00:55Will Tampa Bay be seeing any increases anytime soon?

00:58I would think so.

01:00You know, the bill gave us incredible resources to come out and to support our law enforcement.

01:06You know, the Department of Homeland Security, it's our mission literally is to protect the

01:11homeland and to do it with honor and integrity in a way that really serves the American people.

01:17So we will continue to look for opportunities to do new things that maybe you haven't seen

01:22before that will make sure that we have our security needs addressed.

01:26We have to do this in the next few weeks.

01:28All right.

01:29I hope that, why not be a security, no one is the security.

01:31No one is going to be a security in order and safety.

01:34Here we have our security in the covering.

01:35I do not want to be a security in the covering now.

01:38Okay.

01:39I'm sorry.

01:40I have to ask you.

01:41That's a security in the covering.

01:43Yes.

01:44No one is set.

01:45A security in the covering.

01:46I have to be careful with your security.

01:48Yeah, I am not sure.

01:49I am not sure.

01:50Yes.

01:51I will have to be a security that's going.
