==Instructional Process==
*Open the following page: https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/browse
*Type "entrepreneurship" or key words related to entrepreneurship in the search bar.
*For each individual bill listed, click on the bill and open the bill's overview page, i.e. https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/114/s1137
* On the wiki page, record the bill number "S. 1137", the bill title "PATENT Act", and prognosis "36% chance of being enacted".
* If there is "See Instead" under prognosis, there is another bill with this same title introduced to Congress. The two bills contain the same content (for the several bills I have checked). If two bills have the same title but not linked to each other, they still have very similar contents.
* Then we click on the "Read Text" and extract the summary of the bill under "A Bill" / "An Act" title: "To amend title 35, United States Code, and the Leahy-Smith America Invents Act to make improvements and technical corrections, and for other purposes."
