American Made Advocacy: Going Beyond the CHIPS Act to Power American Manufacturing
03/26/2024 | Travis Kelly -- Column: American Made AdvocacyWhere have all the factories gone?

For decades, foreign competitors seeking to control critical markets played a long game. Government investment and subsidies were effective in undercutting U.S. and European companies.

This resulted in the serious workforce challenges the semiconductor and printed circuit board industries face today.
