Fusion energy is a needed climate solution.
Zero emission, limitless energy could enable decarbonizing our planet to sustain humanity - but not without strong funding for fusion R&D.
The stakes couldn't be higher.

Quantum computers could imperil the security of confidential electronic information, such as emails. To counter this threat, NIST has finalized its set of three encryption algorithms designed to withstand a future quantum computer’s cyberattacks:
It’s been two years since the CHIPS & Science Act became law.
Americans are now seeing more investments in science & innovation that boost our economy. 🙌
It’s been 2 years of

Eager to continue working to support Colorado’s leadership in scientific innovation!
Today, we celebrate the 2nd anniversary of the historic CHIPS and Science Act, which invested $52 billion in American-made semiconductor manufacturing, research, and workforce development. Investments in American jobs and industries are investments in the American people.
We passed the CHIPS and Science Act two years ago this month. Several of my Oregon colleagues and I wrote about how our state is a leader in securing investments and advancing the domestic semiconductor industry.
Across the nation, we’re seeing the promise of
#CHIPSandScience
take effect. With groundbreakings and commitments for semiconductor manufacturing facilities, Democrats secured bringing chip manufacturing back to the United States.
Semiconductors – those chips smaller than the tip of your finger – power everything in our lives, from smartphones to cars to AI.
We invented them, but when I came to office, their manufacturing had moved overseas.
That changed when I signed the CHIPS and Science Act into law.
Thousands of good paying jobs, billions of dollars in public and private investment, regionally focused innovation hubs, revitalized semiconductor manufacturing, and more—the
#CHIPSandScience
Act is transforming communities and building opportunities across the country.
When
@POTUS
signed our CHIPS and Science Act into law, we made a historic investment in ensuring our nation is a global leader in semiconductor technology.
Two years later, we are making semiconductors at home, creating jobs, and boosting American innovation.
I’m excited to celebrate the 2-year anniversary of
@POTUS
signing the
#CHIPSandScience
Act which included my CHIPPING IN Act. This landmark legislation is:
✅ Strengthening supply chain resiliency
✅ Creating 100,000 new good-paying jobs
✅ Boosting American R&D
✅ Building a
In just two years, the CHIPS and Science Act has helped spur innovation in semiconductor manufacturing and other key industries.
But incentives alone aren't enough.
We need to follow through on the promise of this historic law and deliver full funding for ALL of its programs.
2 years later,
@HouseDemocrats
’ investments are:
💡Unlocking American innovation
🧑🔧Creating over 100,000 good-paying jobs
📉Lowering costs for families
Yet Republicans are still trying to slash funding for science & innovation, handing leadership over to China.

As the representative of Oregon’s Silicon Forest, I was proud to help craft the bipartisan CHIPS and Science Act.
In the 2 years since its passage, the bill’s historic investments have strengthened semiconductor manufacturing and R&D & created good paying jobs across the country.
2 years of the CHIPS & Science Act!🥳This historic piece of legislation has helped us:
