LATEST PROJECTS

“True liberty, by protecting the exertions of talents and industry, and securing to them their justly acquired fruits, tends more powerfully than any other cause to augment the mass of national wealth.”

— Alexander Hamilton, Defense of the Funding System

LETTER
FDA-PTO Disclosure Bill


The Medication Affordability and Patent Integrity Act is well-intentioned, but would hinder innovation and  expose valuable U.S. trade secrets.

COALITION LETTER
PREVAIL and PERA Markup in Senate Judiciary

Conservative leaders voice support to Senators for patent bills. PREVAIL removes bias at PTAB, and PERA cancels judicial exceptions to matter that’s patent-eligible.

COALITION LETTER
Maintaining U.S. Tech Leadership

We urge Congress to protect U.S. national security by shoring up the policy underpinnings that will protect our country’s innovation leadership in key technologies.

STATEMENT
PERA Introduced in House

PERA shifts from the unworkable ‘Alice-Mayo Framework’ to clear standards for determining what’s patent-eligible.

STATEMENT
RESTORE Patent Rights Act

This bipartisan, bicameral bill restores access to injunctions in cases where patents are proven infringed. The RESTORE Act corrects a judicially created error of injustice.

LETTER
ITC and IP Hearing

The ITC’s evidence-based process protects U.S. innovators. Congress shouldn’t reward IP infringers and Chinese manufacturers by weakening it.

COMMENT LETTER
PTO Terminal Disclaimer

CPR agrees with bipartisan, former top PTO officials that this must be immediately withdrawn. (If there’s room, include: Its far-reaching lengths are contrary to statute.)

COALITION LETTER
Opposing IRA Price Controls

History shows that price controls never achieve their stated ends and the IRA’s price controls are further evidence.

COMMENT LETTER
PTAB Rules for Denial

PTO's PTAB reforms won't restore balance to the patent system. It should codify Fintiv and require PTAB to accept a court’s or USITC’s decision that a patent is valid.

LETTER
Rx Market Hearing

Qualifying innovations for FTC examination or enforcement would discourage developing drugs for indications with unmet medical needs, including cancers.

COALITION LETTER
Scrap the Rx Excise Tax

The IRA's 95% excise tax on medicines will be punitive, unworkable, and ultimately indefensible.

STATEMENT
Report on Patent Litigation

Marcum's new study of patent litigation shows that civil litigation now holds less promise of delivering justice to inventors and patent owners.

COALITION LETTER
Anti-USITC Bill

H.R. 3535 adds hurdles to the U.S. International Trade Commission’s ability to keep IP-infringing products out, enabling infringers to keep supply chains in China.

LETTER
RALIA

The Restoring America’s Leadership in Innovation Act would strengthen private intellectual property rights. RALIA would reverse the antipatent onslaught of recent years.

LETTER
Sunset Act

The Sunset Act reins in the Administrative State's rules, regulations, and guidance. They would no longer remain in force in perpetuity.

GRAPHIC
What They’re Saying

These excerpt public comments that oppose the Biden draft guidance for Bayh-Dole march-in to forcibly relicense patents if an agency disagrees with the product price.

COALITION LETTER
March-in Framework

The proposed guidance would endanger American economic competitiveness, inhibit innovation, impede public private partnerships, and harm U.S. technological leadership in cutting-edge sectors.

COMMENT LETTER
Price-Based March-In

NIST proposes the most destructive policy: Injecting pricing into Bayh-Dole march-in, which has never been used and lacks statutory grounds for product price. NIST must withdraw it.

COALITION LETTER
House Death Tax Repeal Bill

CPR commends Reps. Randy Feenstra (R-IA) and Sanford Bishop (D-GA) on the House Death Tax Repeal Act. It has over 160 original cosponsors, and the supporting coalition letter has nearly 160 signers.

LETTER
Defense of Property Rights Act

H.R. 6758 enables property owners to hold the federal government accountable for takings. Its more efficient, uniform process secures Fifth Amendment rights.
