39:01
It is difficult, and I’m going to stop right here. This is not my hearing, but their bills cannot wait. Their children cannot wait. And I understand the bargaining. I understand all that. This has to take place. But in the meanwhile, you cannot tell someone that cannot pay the bills to wait.Mercedes NarcisseMember · Committee on Civil Service and Labor · Mar 9, 2026Open the meeting at 39:01
