Question: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Colonial New Mexico Commemorative 
Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS AND PURPOSE.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds that--
            (1) in 1598, almost a decade before the first permanent 
        English settlement was established at Jamestown, Spanish 
        colonists entered New Mexico, beginning more than 2 centuries 
        of colonization that would indelibly mark the character of the 
        American Southwest;
            (2) because of the flow of history, New Mexico has remained 
        a unique area of the Spanish borderlands;
            (3) as a result of its remoteness, New Mexico changed more 
        slowly than other settlements and has retained many significant 
        remnants of colonial customs, language, and attitudes; and
            (4) the interaction of the American Indian and Hispanic 
        colonial heritages resulted in customs, architecture, and many 
        other manifestations that are unique to today's American 
        culture.
    (b) Purpose.--In order to enhance the preservation, interpretation, 
and public understanding of various aspects of colonial New Mexico, the 
purpose of this Act is to authorize the Secretary of the Interior to 
formulate a program for the research, interpretation, and preservation 
of various aspects of colonial New Mexico history.

Answer:
Protecting Consumer Access to Generic Drugs Act of 2007 - Prohibits, as an unfair and deceptive act or practice and an unfair method of competition in or affecting interstate commerce, any person from being a party to any agreement resolving or settling a patent infringement claim in which: (1) an abbreviated new drug (generic) application filer receives anything of value; and (2) such filer agrees not to research, develop, manufacture, market or sell the generic drug. Excludes a resolution or settlement that includes no more than: (1) the right to market the generic drug before the expiration of the patent or other exclusivity period; or (2) the waiver of a patent infringement claim for damages.

Authorizes the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to exempt agreements in furtherance of market competition and for the benefit of consumers.

Deems an applicant to have forfeited market exclusivity if the applicant enters into an agreement that violates this Act.

Amends the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003 to revise reporting requirements related to agreements between a generic drug applicant and a brand name drug company to include: (1) a description of the subject matter of other agreements between the parties; and (2) a certification that the materials filed represent the complete, final, and exclusive agreement between the parties.
