Chair Williams thanks the library panel and announces that the committee will now hear from individuals joining from Puerto Rico on Zoom.

Well, thank you so much.
We are not done.
We know we have more folks testifying from the libraries, but as I signaled earlier, we are going to continue to walk and chew gum at the same time.
And we have some individuals zooming in from Puerto Rico, and we want to get to them at this time.
So we are going to hear from Professor Maria Del Marosa.
Christina Miranda Palacios and Rosa.
Segui.
Segui.
You know, I got to pronounce this correctly.
Rosa Segui.
Did I start?
Yes, you can start.
Okay, thank you.
So first of all, thank you for the opportunity.
My name is Maria del Mar Rosa Rodriguez.
I am a professor at the University of Puerto Rico and the president of the APU, the Puerto Rican Association of University Professors, the faculty union here at the UBR.
I represent more than 3,000 academics, and I want to tell our story, right?
