The CHIPS Act has created more than 50,000 good-paying jobs since 2022 thanks to House Democrats
Two years ago, the CHIPS and Science Act was signed into law thanks to President Biden, Vice President Harris, and the leadership of House Democrats.
This legislation has delivered historic investments in American manufacturing, spurring the re-shoring of jobs and strengthening the nation’s domestic supply chain. Specifically, the CHIPs Act has:
-
Spurred the creation or expansion of 83 new semiconductor manufacturing and supply chain facilities across the country.
-
Attracted $447 billion in private investments across 25 states, boosting America’s chip manufacturing capacity while reducing our dependence on importing chips.
-
Created more than 56,000 good-paying jobs.
-
Expanded opportunities at more than 50 community colleges to help workers access these job opportunities.
House Republicans who opposed this legislation have continued to try and take credit for local investments that they spoke out against, including vulnerable Republicans and DCCC targets Maria Elvira Salazar (FL-27) and Brandon Williams (NY-22).
DCCC Spokesperson Viet Shelton:
“The jobs and economic growth created by the CHIPS and Science Act are a tangible reminder of what House Democrats can accomplish for the middle class when we’re in the majority. When compared to the last two years of dysfunction under House Republicans, voters can see the stark contrast: Democrats deliver, Republicans don’t.”
