JobsOhio Statement on CHIPS Act Funding for Intel in Ohio

“In 2021, Intel started working closely with JobsOhio to find a site for its first greenfield investment in new semiconductor manufacturing on American soil in 40 years. 

Since then, Team Ohio has walked alongside Intel to build this opportunity for America, providing everything Intel could expect in a partnership and more. Megaprojects legislation in 2021, the DeWine-Husted administration’s leadership, alignment with Ohio’s Legislature, and support from Ohio’s bipartisan delegation to pass the CHIPS Act to ensure federal funding for construction are all examples of collaboration to move the project forward. 

With today’s announcement of CHIPS funding for Intel and Ohio One, the United States has come on board to show the world that Ohio is leading the way to bolster the semiconductor industry’s return to being made in the U.S.A. for the betterment of our nation’s economic prosperity and defense.”
