Soon. Good morning. Thank you for coming out this morning. Let me say thank you for the opportunity to have this conversation as i approach you about the importance of this issue, you were kind enough to give me the chance to move this forward and have a real conversation with america about the importance of Police Reform, accountability and transparency.
