Conservatives, including CPR, urged Congress to increase the supply of houses on the market by indexing the home-sale capital gains exclusion cap for inflation. H.R. 1340 and S. 3332 would update the amount excluded from tax, a level set in 1997.

CPR joined conservatives asking Congress to get rid of the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation. It tests payment models to reduce costs and improve care. But the Congressional Budget Office scored CMMI as saving $2.8 billion between 2011 and 2020. It lost $5.4 billion during that period and likely will lose $1.3 billion more by 2030.

Proposals to import foreign price controls for certain drugs in Medicare reward foreign freeloaders and hurt America. They harm Medicare patients, reduce U.S. innovation and undermine U.S. competitiveness. We strongly urge CMS to withdraw both MFN models.

More than 50 conservative groups wrote in opposition to codifying a Most-Favored-Nation prescription drug pricing model. In addition to doing nothing to address foreign freeloading, MFN would reduce access to new cures and cede ground to China in global competitiveness.

A Federal Housing Finance Agency initiative will augment mortgage credit scores. Conservatives note mortgage delinquencies' upward trend and urge the mortgage credit score initiative be done with the utmost caution. It must protect taxpayers and provide lenders transparency.

Key White House officials receive assurance from conservative leaders that PTO's proposal has strong support. It would limit PTAB availability when serial and duplicative challenges of a patent's validity is or has been considered.

RSC's budget addresses several of CPR’s priorities head-on. Most notably, RSC’s budget kills the Death Tax, repeals Obama-Biden-era WOTUS regulatory takings and expands practical benefits derived from federal lands.

Patents and intellectual property constitute the center of America’s innovation economy, prosperity and national security. The U.S. scientific enterprise and secure IP rights are mutually dependent and mutually beneficial.

CMS Grinches dropped lumps of coal with their GLOBE and GUARD drug price control proposals. This “most favored nation" scheme imports foreign governments' drug price controls. This is just as socialist as Democrats' IRA.

CPR favors the proposal that stands for reliable IP rights by reforming the Patent Trial and Appeal Board’s widely criticized invalidation of patents previously upheld by courts and predatory infringers’ abuse of PTAB.

The proposal would improve the Patent Trial and Appeal Board’s practices for instituting inter partes review challenges. It would help restore fairness, efficiency, and predictability to patent adjudication, principles that Congress pledged in the America Invents Act.

The review of USMCA must ensure full compliance with its provisions and strengthen intellectual property protections. It should hold foreign countries to their promises and require they pay their fair share for U.S. innovation.

Rep. Thomas Massie's excellent, bipartisan Restoring America’s Leadership in Innovation Act would strengthen private property rights in one’s inventions and discoveries by broadly reversing the antipatent onslaught.

U.S. innovators that participate in the standards-development process stand to suffer irreparable harm under the UK’s proposals. Meanwhile, Chinese and other foreign firms would be incentivized to inflate the number of patents—pursuing quantity over quality of patents.

Conservatives support Pres. Trump's turning down Democrats' demand that he not allow the "temporary" Biden COVID Obamacare credits to expire. The fraud-plagued subsidies cover upper middle-class earners.

Property-rights conservatives applaud the Patent Eligibility Restoration Act and the Senate Judiciary IP Subcommittee for its hearing on this fix to patent eligibility uncertainty.

Taxpayers already benefit from federally funded research, thanks to the Bayh-Dole Act. Congress wisely rejected government revenue-sharing, as it stalls innovation, jeopardizes U.S. security and opens the door for rivals to surpass us technologically.

Nearly 40 center-right groups wrote Sec. Lutnick opposing his patent tax scheme. CPR, ATR, NTU, Unleash Prosperity and others explain it's bad tax policy at odds with the Big Beautiful Bill "counterproductive in the extreme."

This bill bars pharmaceutical companies from asserting more than one patent from a defined group in a drug product in litigation. It ignores that complex products, particularly in advanced technologies, usually involve multiple distinct inventions.

Patent rights themselves don't constitute a barrier to competition in the pharma space. Rather, patents incentivize investment in innovation, whose groundbreaking products promote dynamic competition.

A coalition of conservative groups voices opposition to the MFN drug pricing model. They agree that importing foreign countries' price controls will harm patients, innovation, competitiveness and the U.S. economy.

The 340B program is supposed to help hospitals care for the indigent at low or no cost, but it's routinely used fraudulently. They get medicines at low or no cost, then distribute them to hospitals in affluent areas.

Invoking 35 U.S.C. § 202 and 28 U.S.C. § 1498 to allow generic competitors to enter the market prior to drug patent expiry is a direct attack on patent rights. HHS must reject it.

Acting Director Stewart seeks to ensure PTO's fair treatment and giving weight to “settled expectations” of inventors and patent owners. She's restoring “quiet title” through reliable, secure patent rights.

MFN would embed foreign governments' socialist price controls into American law. That will punish U.S. innovators, investors and patients. Access barriers, hundreds fewer new drugs, China Rx R&D advantaged.

CMS proposes imposing price controls on new, separately patented medicines the moment they reach the market simply because they are related to older drugs.

Thirty center-right groups voiced support for bipartisan, bicameral PREVAIL, PERA, and RESTORE Patent Rights Acts.

CPR joined more than 30 allied groups advocating for the U.S. Senate to retain health savings account provisions in the budget reconciliation bill.

PREVAIL reforms the Patent Trial and Appeal Board, which has been subject to abuse by patent infringers, Big Tech, Chinese national champions, and even hedge funds.

The Patent Eligibility Restoration Act the would restore the breadth and certainty of what constitutes patent-eligible subject matter. CPR strongly supports PERA.

Congressional Review Act motion to cancel EPA's waiver from Clean Air Act, which allows California's strict emissions rules to force an electric vehicle mandate on all states.

The RESTORE Patent Rights Act would return access to injunctions to patent owners who've proven patent validity and infringement, as it was before the courts wrongfully denied it.

 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. 

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.

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

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