The EU Commission currently has an open consultation on the European Research Area Act until 23 January, which might could strengthen rights to open access and secondary publication [1]. I know many of you care about open knowledge, so this could be a good way to share those thoughts and counter the voices of the many publishers responding.

You can fill out the questionnaire here: https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/better-regulation/have-your-say/initiatives/14608-European-Research-Area-Act/public-consultation_en

Academic institutions, NGOs, EU- and non-EU citizens, and businesses can all respond.

You can look at the submissions to get an idea of the concerns raised [2]
