On the recordMay 2, 2007
I am happy to discuss this issue with my colleagues. As they are aware, this has been my high priority for a number of years, given that I am the author with Representative Henry Waxman of the Drug Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act--or ``Hatch-Waxman''. The Schumer-Clinton bill, which I know has been introduced by Representative Waxman in the House, is an important contribution to this dialogue. I want to work to reach an acceptable compromise on an expedited basis, and it is clear to me it must be a bipartisan effort.
