Version 0.12 (2024-03-01 10:16:51.645000)

updates: The Biden administration's proposal to reshape America's innovation economy by imposing price controls and seizing control of patents is facing opposition from the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM). The NAM argues that this proposal would undermine the American innovation economy and have sweeping ramifications for manufacturers' intellectual property rights. They emphasize that such a move would particularly impact start-ups and small businesses. The NAM is urging the administration to withdraw the proposal and provide certainty to manufacturers and stakeholders in the innovation economy. Additionally, the NAM points out that the march-in provision of the Bayh-Dole Act, which allows the government to intervene during times of crisis to ensure consumer access to certain products, has never been used since its enactment in 1980. To further oppose the proposal, the NAM has launched a seven-figure ad campaign. In 1980, Senators Bob Dole and Birch Bayh passed the Bayh-Dole bill, which allowed private entities to bring new products to market using federally funded research. However, the Biden administration wants to allow competitors to take over patents if they deem the price of the product to be unreasonable, which could damage innovation and medical progress. A letter was submitted to the administration opposing this proposal, stating that it would be an assault on intellectual property rights and weaken the economy. The Health Policy Consensus Group participated in signing the letter. [73a4c4fd]
