SIA Statement on Semiconductor Tariffs Announcement
August 8, 2025 | SIAEstimated reading time: 1 minute
The Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) released the following statement from SIA President and CEO John Neuffer regarding President Trump’s semiconductor tariff announcement. The semiconductor industry is investing $630 billion in 28 states across America, strengthening our economic and national security, and delivering on the President’s goal to revitalize American semiconductor manufacturing. To sustain these investments, America must be a cost-competitive location to develop and produce chips.
“We are eager to learn more about the President’s plan for semiconductor tariffs, including the scope and structure of exemptions for companies manufacturing in the U.S. Trade is critical to American semiconductor leadership. And so we hope the tariff exemptions and future trade deals are designed to ensure the U.S. semiconductor industry retains its pole position in the race to be the most globally competitive.
“We look forward to working with the Administration to shape global trade initiatives to ensure American semiconductor leadership for many years to come.”
