Taiwan alone produces 92% of the world’s leading-edge chips – even though the majority of them are still based on American technology created at UC Berkeley with federal funding. It’s not right – and we’re going to fix it with the CHIPS and Science Act.
@SecRaimondo Yet your public statements admitted that you were going to favor Taiwanese-based companies for funding… it’s absolutely ridiculous to use taxpayer money to make Taiwanese Executives richer
@SecRaimondo Thanks a lot. We are ready under Team Joe Biden to fix it.
@SecRaimondo Please take the lesson learn form 2000 Telcom bust we lost all our Telcom company.
@SecRaimondo @djrothkopf Good. We need to also review how selling Arizona water rights and tTexas oil refineries to foreign entities with no known benefit. I don’t doubt there are more. America Firsters indeed!
@SecRaimondo Yeah nice try. First rule is these companies receiving gvt $, they should be American cos. Two of the manufacturing companies being mentioned are foreign entities, so they can come over here and set up shop and further drain the US of our tax dollars. Ssshhh!
@SecRaimondo Require any government-funded projects with new jobs to provide 5% of them to employable #homeless @JoeBiden @KamalaHarris @VP @POTUS
@SecRaimondo @KatrinaNation Strong show of support for Taiwan. 🇹🇼
@SecRaimondo Taiwan spent 40 years building a high tech ecosystem from . . .basically nothing; & sustained this innovation with huge investments in research and higher ed to ensure a workforce second to none. Getting all these things right is their secret sauce. They didn't cheat; they won.
@SecRaimondo Tsmc spends $40 billion a year on capex your pathetic funding with now so many strings attached is assured to fail.
