Vice President Kamala Harris stumped hard on semiconductor manufacturing this week, visiting the Michigan plant of a chip supplier that’s in line to get more than $300 million in subsidies from a landmark Biden administration law. After walking the Hemlock Semiconductor factory floor, Harris hammered home her pitch as the candidate who will cement America’s leadership in the 21st century.
“A very serious choice [will be] presented in the next eight days. And as much as anything, it is a question about what is the direction in the future that we want for our country,” she said.
On tech policy, Harris and her surrogates are walking through a door left wide open by President Donald Trump. Speaking on Joe Rogan’s podcast Friday, Trump blasted the CHIPS and Science Act, the law directing $39 billion to subsidies to rebuild American semiconductor manufacturing, as “so bad.”
