WASHINGTON (February 25, 2025) — The Inventors Defense Alliance (IDA) celebrates the introduction of the Realizing Engineering, Science, and Technology Opportunities by Restoring Exclusive (RESTORE) Patent Rights Act of 2025 in the House and Senate, and praises the original sponsors, Senators Chris Coons (D-DE) and Tom Cotton (R-AR), and Representatives Nathaniel Moran (R-TX) and Madeleine Dean (D-PA).
Kristen Osenga — chief policy counselor at the Inventors Defense Alliance and Austin E. Owen Research Scholar and Professor of Law at the University of Richmond School of Law — made the following statement:
“The RESTORE Patent Rights Act is a crucial step in safeguarding America’s small businesses, startups, and entrepreneurs from predatory patent infringement. By providing a clear path for justice and injunctive relief, this bill empowers innovators and fosters a more equitable patent system that benefits American inventors and consumers.”
The Inventors Defense Alliance sent a letter in support of the RESTORE Patent Rights Act of 2024 to the Senate Judiciary Committee last year. Read it here.
