The Council for Innovation Promotion (C4IP) released its second Congressional Innovation Scorecard assessing legislative engagement with intellectual property (IP) policies. Although there was a noted increase in pro-IP voices, many members of Congress received poor grades, with over half earning a 'C' or lower. Notably, Senators Thom Tillis and Chris Coons were the only ones graded 'A+'. C4IP emphasizes that nurturing the IP system is crucial for America's innovation economy, likening it to a vital investment vehicle for future prosperity.
C4IP calls the innovation system "America's 401(K) - the investment vehicle through which we secure future prosperity," highlighting the need for Congressional support for IP.
The scorecard showed that while progress was made, the majority of Congress remains disengaged from advancing critical pro-IP legislation impacting the innovation economy.
