This packageincludesthe Partnerships for Energy and Security Act\u2013the first piece of legislation that I introduced in Congress. Our state is the proud home of two of our nation\u2019s leading research laboratories where scientists push the envelope of innovation in science and technology every day. This bill will boost New Mexico\u2019s STEM economy and leverage the billions of dollars that the labs contribute to our state\u2019s economy. And, as a former STEM educator, I\u2019m proud this legislation will help students of all backgrounds succeed in STEM careers at our Labs.\n\n\u201cThe wider CHIPS and Science Act is a much-needed boost to the people and ideas that keep America\u2019s science and technology strong. By investing billions in domestic manufacturing, this bill will lower costs for New Mexico\u2019s familiesbuying dishwashers to cars to everything in between while creating good jobs. This legislation also funds critical infrastructure upgrades to our National Labs in New Mexico to ensure that our Labs can continue driving innovation across the United States. Now that this important package has become law, we are ready for the hard work of maximizing the benefits this legislation will bring to all New Mexicans.\u201d\n\nTheCHIPS and Science Act invests $52 billion to boost domestic semiconductor manufacturing, with the remaining $280 billion targeted to federal agencies like the U.S. Department of Energy, the Department of Commerce, the National Science Foundation, the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to boost public-private partnerships that turbocharge American science and technology innovation. The legislation also includes $800 million to upgrade critical infrastructure at National Laboratories, including Sandia and Los Alamos.\n\nLast year, Rep. Stansbury introduced her bipartisanPartnerships for Energy Security and Innovation Actto stimulate innovation and local economic development in New Mexico. Earlier this month, Rep.
