Team,
Earlier this week, the bipartisan CHIPS Act was officially signed into law, legislation that means that American companies will manufacture more of the microchips that power everything from our cars to our cell phones.
These 14-cent microchips have been one of the main focuses of my work for the past two years, as global shortages have forced auto plants in my district to shut down on and off, leaving workers short-changed. Right now, 2% of the chips used in cars are made in America.
Which is why it’s surprising that my opponent hasn’t taken a clear stance on the CHIPS Act.
You can’t run for Congress without telling voters what you believe about the issues they care about. To mid-Michigan workers, that means microchips. My constituents tell me all the time about how much the chip shortage is hurting them. Cars can’t come off the lot, our military can’t build the planes and tanks it needs, and plants can’t keep the lights on. In all of this, Michigan’s workers are getting left in the lurch.
We’re at an inflection point in American history where we need to make a decision: are we going to make a change and invest in our ability to make chips at home and create jobs in Michigan, or are we going to allow ourselves to grow more and more dependent on Asia?
I’ve made it clear where I stand on the CHIPS Act, and after its passage I called on my opponent to do the same. So far, he’s been silent. If he wants the job, it’s time he tells the voter how he would have voted.
