If blank return a "text"

 Hi DAX Experts. Do you know what is wrong with my Dax formula. So here's the logical test.

1. If Resource List end date is today and prior,then it will return as "Contract End".

2. If Resource List end date is not today but on a later date and beyond, then return a text as "Ongoing"

3. If Resource List end date is blank, then return a text as also "Ongoing".

 

My error is if resource list end date is blank the return text is "Contract End" which is supposed to be "Ongoing".

Thank you for your help. 😞
