Last week we delivered a major win for Ohio: the investment necessary to complete the historic Intel project in Licking County.<\/b><\/p>\n

This investment will create 10,000 new Ohio jobs.<\/b>\u00a0It will mean work for 7,000 union workers in the skilled trades over 10 years, and 3,000 workers in Intel\u2019s fabs.<\/p>\n

For decades now, we haven\u2019t manufactured nearly enough in this country.<\/b>\u00a0America invented the semiconductor, yet today, 90 percent of them are made overseas.<\/p>\n

We wrote the CHIPS Act to bring the production of semiconductor chips back home where it belongs: to America \u2014 and to Ohio.<\/b><\/p>\n

These chips are one of the most important inputs in the modern economy.<\/b>\u00a0They\u2019re in everything \u2014 washing machines, trucks, solar panels, and nearly all manufacturing equipment.<\/p>\n

After we passed the bill into law, we immediately got to work to ensure Ohio was in the best position possible to receive the investment.<\/b>\u00a0We worked every angle to make sure our application was the strongest in the country.<\/p>\n

Today, all those years of effort are paying off.<\/b>\u00a0This investment is going to allow this project to reach its full potential \u2014 for Ohio workers, Ohio innovation, and Ohio leadership.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s bury the term \u201crust belt\u201d once and for all.<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
