When you were working to establish the exchange that there was the template your website had issues and im assuming all thats been resolved and the people that went into medicaid temporarily cms approved are now out of that . All of those temporary medicaid members have been redetermined into either requalified health plans or medicaid. Great. And ms. Otoole, do you still have a backlog of about 180,000 public insurance renewals in the system . Thank you for the question, congressman. We do not. That has been resolved. Okay. And it says despite additional funds, im sure you do continue to struggle some, obviously. And again, i applaud all of you for what youre doing. The goal of our committee is to find out where we can make improvements, right . But minnesota announced that theyre going to revert to the old system for minnesota care because of mshares problems, is that true . Congressman, that is true just for a short period of time, and that is we have prioritized that functionality

Want to panic anybody but i put a couple of cops on just trying to figure out whether every lines we were. My number one goal at that time, wheres the mayor, wheres the Police Commissioner, whats your line of authority. And also start figuring out what our logistics were. Fortunately about a halfhour into this, dunn came in all covered with the same stuff i was covered with and i was real happy because hes my friend and then i felt frankly a little burden had been lifted. And then esposito, the chief of department came in. Then what i did, the first thing i did was i facilitated the conversation with dunn about whether or not we should stay in Police Headquarters. And we had to think that through. Because by that time we figured i figured out that the buildings had fallen. But we still didnt know there were all of these planes flying around.
