    Citation:90 FR 16511
    Reading Time:about 4 minutes

    The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has officially ended the Climate Change Mitigation Pilot Program. The program, which allowed for patent applications to be processed more quickly if they were related to climate change solutions, was suspended in January 2025 after the executive order that supported it was revoked. Any petitions to join the program submitted after this date will not be considered. The USPTO encourages patent applicants seeking expedited processing to apply through the Track One Program for prioritized examination.

    Simple Explanation

    The government stopped a special program that helped people get their ideas for fighting climate change approved faster. Now, they suggest using another quicker way if someone wants their ideas checked quickly.

    The Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled is proposing changes to its Procurement List, which impacts which products and services must be sourced from nonprofit agencies that employ people who are blind or have severe disabilities. They are planning to add a building management service at a U.S. Army location in Texas and remove various products and services, such as a medical transcription service and multiple kitchen and cleaning items. The public has until May 18, 2025, to submit comments on these proposed changes.

    Simple Explanation

    The government is deciding to make a change to a special shopping list for items and services it buys to help people who might need extra help doing jobs, like those who can't see well. They want to add some new services but also take away some things like helping with typing medical notes, cleaning, and making glasses. People can say what they think about these changes until May 18, 2025.
