Lynn C. Schulman

I'm going to call up the next panel.

Lynn C. Schulman

Before I call up the next panel, I just want to say that the testimony that you provide needs to be on topic.

Lynn C. Schulman

It needs to be on food inspections.

Lynn C. Schulman

If it's not, if it's off topic, the testimony won't be allowed.

Lynn C. Schulman

So I just want everybody to know that.

Lynn C. Schulman

The next panel is Jacob.

Lynn C. Schulman

Zajcik and Michael Davily.

Lynn C. Schulman

It's not required.

Lynn C. Schulman

Don't worry about it.

Lynn C. Schulman

Oh, yeah, it's about the bills.

Lynn C. Schulman

But, yeah, it's about the topic that we're having the hearing on.

Lynn C. Schulman

Sorry about that.

Lynn C. Schulman

Yes.

Lynn C. Schulman

You each have two minutes.

Lynn C. Schulman

And summarize if you can, and then you can submit the testimony because we're looking at everything.

Lynn C. Schulman

So we're not going to do anything before we do that anyway.

Lynn C. Schulman

All right.

Lynn C. Schulman

Who's going first?

Lynn C. Schulman

You are?

Lynn C. Schulman

Go ahead.
