(114th Congressional Session)
*Total Unique Pieces of Legislation: '''137101'''**House: '''7675'''***House Simple: '''20'''***House Concurrent: '''1''' (Same as Senate Concurrent)**Senate: '''5655'''***Senate Simple: '''10'''***Senate Concurrent: '''1'''(Same as House Concurrent)
*Some pieces of legislation are under considerarion in both chambers. I have included repeats in subsets of "House" and "Senate", but NOT in "Unique Pieces of Legislation."
*"Simple" Resolutions affect only that particular chamber in which it is passed. Usually deal with more fluffy policy, such as designating a week in honor of small businesses.
*"Concurrent" Resolutions do not carry the force of law (unlike a joint bill) but must be approved by both chambers in identical form. ===Top Patent Legislation=== *[https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/114/s1137 PATENT Act] (36% of enactment)*[https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/114/s632 STRONG Patents Act of 2015] (4% chance of enactment)*[https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/114/hr9 Innovation Act] (36% chance of enactment)*[https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/114/hr1832 Innovation Protection Act] (5% chance of enactment)*[https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/114/hr2045 Targeting Rogue and Opaque Letters Act of 2015] (24% chance of enactment) ===Not So Top Patent Legislation=== *[https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/114/hr1896 Demand Letter Transparency Act of 2015] (0% chance of enactment)*[https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/114/hr2370 End Anonymous Patents Act] (0% chance of enactment)*[https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/114/s560 PARTS Act] (0% enactment)
