My first request of you this afternoon is to table with this committee the.... We've read there are 12 criteria and a point system, and that there's a grid and point system. We'd like you to table with the committee that grid and point system so we can all see it for ourselves and understand why it is that some of us got more and some of us got less and why some very well-meaning, hard-working organizations got money and others didn't.
That's always the challenge for us. Whether you like it or not, we're going to get the questions. We're going to take the heat. They'll be asking us why they didn't get funded this year and why they got funded last year. And we have to answer those questions, not you.
