About HALF OF GLOBALMARKET share with salesof more than $209 BILLION

America’s #4 EXPORT after airplanes, refined oil and crude oil

BRAINS OF MODERN ELECTRONICS,strategic to America’s innovation infrastructure

U.S. industry impact

Invests about ONE-FIFTH OF REVENUE in R&D, among the highest of any industry, concentrated in the U.S.

Among the world’s MOST ADVANCED MANUFACTURERS, with about HALF ofU.S. companies’ manufacturing base in theU.S. across 19 STATES

In 2018, the United States exported $44 BILLION in semiconductors and maintains a consistent trade surplus in semiconductors

Semiconductors are critical to the key technologies of the future

• AI

• Quantum Computing

• Advanced wireless networks

The U.S. needs a robust plan of action to drive the semiconductor innovations to lead in these technologies

Policy Recommendations

• Reform the high-skilled immigration system by eliminating caps on STEM graduates

• Increase investment in STEM education to double the number of STEM graduates

www.semiconductors.org

Policy Recommendations

• Approve modernized free trade agreements that eliminate market barriers, protect IP, and enable fair competition

• Increase resources for law enforcement and intelligence agencies to prevent and prosecute semiconductor intellectual property theft

Less than 20% of U.S. semiconductor industry sales go to domestic customers, while overseas markets account for more than 80% of sales.
