We would love the help of the military because you depend on them just as much as we do, if not more.
I want to publicly call out the leadership on both the House and the Senate for not moving this fast enough.
The United States makes zero percent of the legacy chips that go in our vehicles.
Is it fair to say that depending on suppliers almost exclusively in Asia for the chips to run our vehicles... is a vulnerability that we need to mitigate in short order?
We don't want to be dependent on countries who are our adversaries for equipment in our weapon systems.
I thank the gentleman for those moving remarks. As I conclude here, I just want to thank everyone who came to speak, and I feel extremely proud that these remarks and just a taste of the Secretary's legacy will be kept forever in the…
I thank the Speaker for that personal tribute. I yield to the gentleman from Maryland (Mr. Hoyer), the majority leader.

So I would just say if as you continue to do your job around the world you feel like there are things where ease of administration would help you, please come to us before the need.
The public needs to understand this issue, right? They are watching what is going on in Russia-Ukraine and wondering when is the next shoe going to drop with China and are we prepared.
I represent autoworkers that have been laid off for the better part of the last year because of a 14 cent microchip that they can't get.
I don't want the Pentagon to feel like they are the lead foot in the debate and the engagement with China.
The decision to do a no-fly zone is the decision to open ourselves up to war with Russia.
I would just say you have an absolutely unique moment where the U.S. Congress has bipartisan agreement on giving you what you need and we're not getting an ask.
