Schumer: Bring chip manufacturing back to US
[anvplayer video=”5142489″ station=”998132″]
Semiconductor supply chains should run through the Capital Region, not China. That’s the message Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer brought to town Tuesday.
The senator paid a visit to Albany Nanotech.
He says Chinese companies are selling microchips used by the federal government, which makes the government more vulnerable to cyber-attacks, and could put your data at risk.
To fight the problem, Schumer is calling for a provision to be added to the National Defense Act – to protect information and the supply chain.
