    <div>We would like to give you an update on the Collective Bargaining Bill.</div>
    <div><ol>
    <li>
    <span>In February, </span><span>GSA's Legislative Concerns Chair </span><a href="mailto:zpoff2@umbc.edu" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"><span>Zane Poffenberger</span></a><span> testified in favor on behalf of the GSA.

    </li>
    <li>On 9 May 2023, UMD's AAUP (American Association of University Professors) sent out an update. <span>Their efforts now are to grow the coalition working toward future passage of this bill.</span><span> They also reported what the coalition accomplished this year:</span>
    </li>
    <ol>
    <li><span>Four dozen faculty and graduate students came out on a Lobby Night in Annapolis.</span></li>
    <li><span>2,400 signatures on a petition for collective bargaining and living wages.</span></li>
    <li>More than 4,500 phone calls and emails to legislators! Some legislators called back immediately to offer support.</li>
    <li>More than thirty colleagues took the time to collect over 600 supportive postcards from constituents of Senate President Bill Ferguson (D) and Senate Finance Chair Melony Griffith (D).</li>
    <li>Radio and podcast appearances, op eds, and even <a href="https://www.chronicle.com/article/stonewalled-disrespected-and-dismissed?cid=gen_sign_in" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"><span>an impactful interview in the Chronicle of Higher Education</span></a><span>.</span>
    </li>
    <li>Over 150 faculty and graduate students took time to submit oral and written testimony to the Senate and House Committees.</li>
