Biden Invokes Defense Production Act To Increase Chip Production

WHITE HOUSE

President Joe Biden has invoked the 1950 Defence Production Act to boost the domestic production of printed circuit boards and associated products "essential to national defense."

  • Biden said in a statement: "Ensuring a robust, resilient, and sustainable domestic industrial base is essential for the national defense."
  • Biden: "I hereby determine... that printed circuit boards and advanced packaging, their components, and the manufacturing systems that produce such systems and components are industrial resources, materials, or critical technology items essential to national defense."
  • Biden claims that "...without Presidential action," US industry "cannot reasonably be expected to provide the capability for the needed industrial resource, material, or critical technology item in a timely manner," arguing that invoking the DPA is, "the most cost-effective, expedient, and practical alternative method for meeting the need."
