On the recordMarch 8, 2011
I would like to clarify some concerns I have about the Schumer-Kyl program that was included in the managers' amendment to the America Invents Act, adopted on March 1. I am specifically concerned that this provision revives an amendment that had been included in previous versions of the bill--that amendment specifically targeted patents related to the Check 21 Act and eliminated the ability of the holder of such patents to collect damages. Is that the purpose of the Schumer-Kyl language?
