Friend,
One of the biggest issues I’ve heard about since the start of the pandemic has been supply chains.
Small business owners across Delaware have told me time and again that it’s one of their biggest challenges, and it truly affects everything – from your bagel with cream cheese to the computer in your car.
So I’ve done something about it.
The America Competes Act – and the bipartisan supply chain provisions that I worked on – will ensure manufacturing of critical components are brought back home, create good-paying union jobs across the country, and prevent supply chain disruptions from impacting us in the future.
This bill will help expand American capacity to produce the key components for so many of the products we rely on every single day – and in the process, will make our economy more competitive, reliable, and sustainable.
This bill addresses the chip shortage by appropriating funding toward producing semiconductors in America. It aims to fix the supply chain by building more critical components in America – strengthening American manufacturing and protecting our national security. Finally, it ensures we continue to lead in scientific research by maximizing the American talent pool and diversifying our STEM workforce.
I don’t know about you, but all that makes me want to dance!
The America Competes Act passed the House earlier this month, and I look forward to it passing the Senate and getting to President Biden’s desk ASAP.
Thank you!
LBR
P.S. If you can, please consider contributing to my reelection campaign so we can keep control of the House and continue to deliver on the most pressing issues!
