“The success of the U.S. semiconductor industry requires both homegrown talent and talent from around the world. This is a step in an unhelpful direction for our industry and the U.S. innovation economy as a whole. With the U.S. and global economy facing unprecedented challenges, now is the time to pursue pro-growth policies that enhance the competitiveness of the semiconductor industry, a foundational industry driving growth and jobs across the entire economy.
