Skimmed through it Right now will due a full reading Right now But I do generally dislike Patent Abusing. I do understand the inventor's need to have some protection over their time/ideas but the increase of patent abuse is a major problem. I do disagree with the no animal DNA provision.

I didn't introduce this bill to be anti-Monsanto, I introduced it because patenting genetic material should be illegal, plain and simple - that includes animal and plant DNA. Living things shouldn't be subject to claiming or ownership by anybody, and I don't see a need to explain more.

That's absurd. If the idea of a patent should exist then companies can spend millions of dollars modifying a genetic code to get the best performing animal/plant for a specific purpose but it can just be taken by another company? But if it was a non living thing it doesn't matter?.

Nay- Seeds should be considered patent able technology.
