WASHINGTON- Last week, Congressman Pete Sessions (TX-17) led a letter with many of his Texas colleagues requesting that (Kelly-Cruz) S. 2228, the Building Chips in America Act, be brought to the House floor. After passing the Senate with unanimous consent, S. 2228 cleared the House today. This legislation is essential to meet United States economic and national security goals as well as bring chip manufacturing back to American soil. The bill clears bureaucratic roadblocks for semiconductor industry grant recipients by streamlining NEPA regulations. 

See here for the letter. 

Congressman Sessions said, "This legislation is of immense importance to Texas. With over 47,000 jobs created and more on the way, Texas is at the forefront of this high-tech manufacturing. Bringing chip manufacturing back to American soil strengthens national security and our economy."
