Haley Stevens (D-MI) voted in support of the CHIPS and Science Act \u2013 a historic federal investment in semiconductor chips, science, and technological competitiveness to bring manufacturing back to the United States. The package includes multiple bills authored by Rep. Stevens; the CHIPPING IN Act, National Institute of Standards and Technology for the Future Act of 2021, and her bill to expand the Hollings Manufacturing Extension Partnership program.\n\nAs Chairwoman of the House Research and Technology Subcommittee, Rep. Stevens played a major role in the drafting of the bill and was a key voice in bipartisan and bicameral negotiations on this critical legislation.\n\n\u201cMy district has felt the chips shortage acutely \u2013 throughout the months of negotiations on this bill I continued expressing our state\u2019s urgency for funding and encouraged Members in both Chambers of Congress and both sides of the aisle to stay at the table until we had a deal,\u201d said Rep. Haley Stevens (MI-11). \u201cI am thrilled to see Congress pass the Chips & Science Act to bolster American manufacturing, boost our STEM workforce, and revitalize support for our premier research institutions. I am proud that the bill includes my own CHIPPING IN Act \u2013 to develop a diverse and sustainable semiconductor chip workforce here in the U.S.\u2013 in addition to my many bipartisan provisions that I helped usher through the House Science Committee. This CHIPS and Science bill is an investment in our people \u2013 it reflects our ability to reach higher, think deeper, and invent solutions to not only today\u2019s problems, but solutions for tomorrow\u2019s problems as well. It is a day for celebration and this groundbreaking legislation will ensure that Michigan continues to lead the country and the world in innovation.\u201d\n\nThe CHIPS and Science Act includes:\n\n$54.2 billion investments in domestic chip manufacturing\n\nSupport for the auto-grade chips that American automakers need to remain competitive in the global market\n\nRep. Stevens\u2019 bill \u2013 the CHIPPING IN Act \u2013 a bill to expand and diversify the US chips workforce, which is a critical piece of the effort to bring microelectronics manufacturing jobs back to the USA\n\nRep Stevens\u2019 bill - the NIST for the Future Act \u2013 a comprehensive reauthorization for the agency that supports U.S. competitiveness through precision measurement research, technology development, partnerships with industry, facilitating and developing standards, and support for U.S. manufacturing\n\nRep. Stevens\u2019 bill to expand the Hollings Manufacturing Extension Partnership program\n\nA suite of bipartisan Science Committee provisions \u2013 that Rep. Stevens has long championed \u2013 to bolster American manufacturing, ensure our STEM workforce reflects the diversity of our country, and revitalize support for our premier research institutions\n\nThe Chips Crisis\n\nSemiconductor chips are the building blocks of the modern economy \u2013 chips power our smartphones, cars, electronics, home appliances, medical devices, defense and more. Over reliance on foreign producers has left the United States vulnerable to supply chain disruptions and American automakers and consumers are paying the price. While it is a global semiconductor shortage, American automakers have experienced some of the largest adverse impacts. IHS Markit Automotive reported that last year alone, 1.5 million cars were not built due to the semiconductor shortage. The CHIPS and Science Act makes sorely needed investments for semiconductor manufacturing in America and invests in domestic semiconductor production.", 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://stevens.house.gov/media/press-releases/rep-stevens-secures-wins-chips-and-science-act-votes-historic-investments"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.8699190802872181, "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"}
