Who is making money off pushing this bill, and how?

Patent trolls and big pharma. The bill would make it harder to challenge shitty parents and to make generic drugs.

As a small software company owner who fought off a patent troll who claimed to have patented the idea of showing related content to a reader, I can confidently say patent trolls are parasites that deserve everything the courts have heaped on them in the last 10 years.

Call your senator and tell them that the patent trolls are killing innovation and to vote NO on PREVAIL
