Are you volunteering? I don't believe that we have WMUK staff or trustee time that can be put towards leading a discussion of the details and implications that the bill could have for Wikimedia (globally or locally), or to coordinate writing a response to the bill - but if a volunteer is interested and willing to do that then that could be good.
