SHERMAN, Texas (KXII) – A bill in Congress passed this week – The Building Chips in America Act is now on its way to President Joe Biden’s desk.

“What this is going to mean is new manufacturing plants will be built in Texas much faster. iIt will mean billions more dollars invested in the economy in Texas, and it will mean thousands more high-paying jobs in Texas. IIt’s a great victory for jobs in Texas,” said Cruz.
In addition, the bill helps keep manufacturing the chips domestically.
