I am hopeful that the Chairman will work in a bipartisan way to address remaining concerns with the Innovation Act as it goes to the House Floor. We must ensure that it reflects a balanced approach that protects the rights of patent owners while also reducing abusive patent litigation so that all stakeholders involved can focus on promoting economic growth. Without this balance, my continued support is not guaranteed." | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
