In a vote of 243-187-1, Rep. Kaptur joined 218 House Democrats and 24 House Republicans to pass the bill, which will now be sent to President Biden for signature.\n\nThe Creating Helpful Incentives to Produce Semiconductors and Science (CHIPS and Science) Act is comprehensive legislation that boosts American economic competitiveness and national security, creates good-paying jobs, and lowers costs by investing in domestic manufacturing and strengthening supply chains across the country.\n\nWhile China and other foreign competitors are heavily investing in their own semiconductor manufacturing capacity, the United States currently only produces 12 percent of what it needs for everything from automobiles to computers \u2013 down from 37 percent in the 1990s. The CHIPS and Science Act\u2019s investments are strategically targeted to restore the U.S.\u2019s position as a world leader in manufacturing innovation. As part of the bill, Rep. Kaptur advocated for the inclusion of automotive-specific investments and incorporated a provision that directs for the Great Lakes region to be prioritized for clean energy incubator investments.\n\n\u201cWhen America builds, America wins,\u201d said Rep. Kaptur. \u201cIn the 21st century, the fight for manufacturing and scientific dominance will be won by those who are ready to compete. By investing in American jobs, American innovation, and American industries, the CHIPS and Science Act turns a page on years of misguided trade and industrial policies and shifts our trajectory toward the future.\u201d\n\nHighlights of the CHIPS and Science Act\n\nJob-Creating Hubs: $11 billion for the Department of Commerce (DOC) to create 20 geographically distributed Regional Technology Hubs to focus on technology development, job creation, and expanding U.S. innovation capacity, including $1 billion dedicated to a RECOMPETES grant program for economically-distressed communities\n\nSemiconductor Manufacturing Incentives: $39 billion for assistance to build, expand, or modernize domestic semiconductor manufacturing facilities and equipment, including $2 billion specifically for legacy chip production geared toward automotive and related manufacturing\n\nResearch and Development: $11 billion for DOC research and development programs and workforce development initiatives, including the National Semiconductor Technology Center and National Advanced Packaging Manufacturing Program\n\nAdvanced Manufacturing Investment Tax Credit: Establishes a 25 percent investment tax credit to incentivize construction and modernization of semiconductor manufacturing facilities\n\nCHIPS for America\u2019s Defense Fund: $2 billion for Department of Defense microelectronic research and development and semiconductor workforce training\n\nCHIPS for America Workforce and Education Fund: $200 million for the National Science Foundation for microelectronics workforce development\n\nMore information on the CHIPS and Science Act can be found here.\n\n###", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-08T02:49:02Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://kaptur.house.gov/media-center/press-releases/kaptur-votes-bipartisan-chips-and-science-act-invest-american"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.7352058310061693, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
