In February 2008, an amendment was introduced into the pending [[Patent Reform Act of 2007]] allowing Banks and other financial institutions to infringe the DataTreasury patents without paying a license fee. This has been characterized as a [[regulatory taking]]. The [[Congressional Budget Office]] has estimated that this action could cost the government about $1 billion in compensation to DataTreasury.<ref>[http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/02/13/AR2008021303731.html?nav=emailpage
