As I told the @nytimes for this piece, semiconductor manufacturers are taking advantage of real concerns about shortages to leverage massive subsidies out of local communities. There's no need for local lawmakers to fall for it. https://www.nytimes.com/...

Our community remains at the forefront of all I do. This means continuing to address our affordability crisis. Recently, I spoke to the NYT about displacement & how we must ensure as we bring businesses to ATX they contribute their fair share to our city. https://www.nytimes.com/…

.@dmccabe writes that many states and cities in America hope that efforts to sharply increase computer chip production will lead to a busy chip factory in their backyard. And they are racing to get a piece of the potential boom. https://www.nytimes.com/...

The vast majority of semiconductors are made in Taiwan, South Korea and mainland China. The U.S. controls just 12% of global production, but some states and cities hope to change that, @dmccabe writes. https://www.nytimes.com/...

Good news for Dallas (3,000+ jobs) and good news for America (more domestic manufacturing of semiconductors). https://www.dallasnews.com/...

Texas remains the best state for business & jobs. Many businesses move here for greater opportunity. Others like Texas Instruments stay here & grow here. TI selects Sherman for a $30 billion semiconductor chipmaking campus that will add 3,000 jobs. https://www.dallasnews.com/...
