SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds that--

        rate and are a major worry of many senior citizens and American 
        families;
            (2) there is a potential for companies with patent rights 
        regarding brand name drugs and companies which could 
        manufacture generic versions of such drugs to enter into 
        financial deals that could tend to restrain trade and greatly 
        reduce competition and increase prescription drug expenditures 
        for American citizens; and

        significantly reduce prescription drug expenditures for 
        Americans.

        drugs; and
