SIA and our members stand ready to work with the Trump administration and Congress to advance policies that will sustain and expand America’s semiconductor resurgence for years to come.”
SIA earlier this month released a policy agenda setting forth the U.S. semiconductor industry’s policy priorities and suggested areas for collaboration with the Trump administration and the 119th Congress. The policy agenda, titled “Winning the Chip Race,” provides government leaders with actionable policy goals to position the U.S. semiconductor industry for success and ensure America’s economic strength, national security, technology leadership, and global competitiveness.
