WASHINGTON—Jan. 21, 2025—Following this week’s inauguration of President Trump and Vice President Vance, the Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) today released the following statement from SIA President and CEO John Neuffer welcoming the new administration.
“We congratulate President Trump and Vice President Vance on being sworn in to lead America during this pivotal time for our country and the world. U.S. leadership in semiconductor technology is essential for America’s continued economic strength, national security, and ability to out-innovate global competitors. SIA and our members stand ready to work with the Trump administration and Congress to advance policies that will sustain and expand America’s semiconductor resurgence for years to come.”
SIA earlier this month released a policy agenda setting forth the U.S. semiconductor industry’s policy priorities and suggested areas for collaboration with the Trump administration and the 119th Congress. The policy agenda, titled “Winning the Chip Race,” provides government leaders with actionable policy goals to position the U.S. semiconductor industry for success and ensure America’s economic strength, national security, technology leadership, and global competitiveness.
