Illinois governor says his state expected to benefit from CHIPS & Science Act – KFVS (Cape Girardeau, MO)

“We have a lot of manufacturing,” said Gov. JB Pritzker, who attended the signing at the White House. “We’re in the heart of what use to be called the rust belt, now the innovation belt, and our manufacturers use semiconductors in virtually everything that they do, and it’s been very hard to obtain those chips when they needed it.” In the future, Pritzker says this law will bring production back to America and Illinois will benefit from it.
