On August 9, 2022 President Joe Biden signed into law the CHIPS and Science Act. This act provides billions of dollars in new funding to support the research and development of nanotechnology, artificial intelligence, and semiconductor manufacturing in the United States. The City of Elyria is preparing our workforce for a second industrial revolution and the CHIPS Act will play a pivotal role in that transformation. Click here to learn more about the CHIPS Act.
