Last year, we achieved the best year of job creation in history. The bipartisan infrastructure law will build on this historic growth, putting Americans to work, rebuilding our roads, bridges, water systems, and more. And the COMPETES Act, which invests in American research, innovation, and manufacturing will capitalize on this investment in our infrastructure and ensure the technologies of the future are made right here in America. The COMPETES Act will accelerate the production of semiconductors. It will strengthen our supply chain. It will boost our scientific leadership. And it will support good-paying domestic manufacturing jobs. Intel's recent $20 billion investment in a new computer chip plant in Ohio shows the path to the future. As President Biden said in his State of the Union, it is time to bury the term ``Rust Belt.'' With the COMPETES Act, we can make more in America. And I know Ohio workers stand ready to lead the American manufacturing comeback. ____________________
