The Silicon Shield: Why U.S. Semiconductor Manufacturing is Critical for National Security

The Full Spectrum Frontier’s Podcast

The United States stands at a critical crossroads in semiconductor and chip manufacturing. These tiny yet powerful components are the backbone of modern technology, driving everything from smartphones to advanced defense systems. Dependence on foreign suppliers, particularly in geopolitically unstable regions, poses a significant threat to national security and economic stability. By investing in domestic chip production, the U.S. can mitigate supply chain vulnerabilities, safeguard critical infrastructure, and maintain a competitive edge in the global tech landscape. The stakes are clear: without a robust semiconductor industry at home, the future of American innovation and sovereignty is at risk.
