The US Congress is considering a bill in which the government will contribute $ 52 billion to semiconductor production and R & D. Gelsinger said he is aiming to get a $ 3 billion grant for each factory project from the program under the bill.
The idea of the US government subsidizing Intel, an American company, has been under consideration since the time of former President Donald Trump. However, President Biden also approved a backup to American semiconductor companies such as Intel, and the bill has already passed the US Senate in July 2021.

However, GlobalFoundries CEO Tom Caulfield met with Commerce Secretary Gina Lemond, saying, 'We should broadly support not only companies pursuing cutting-edge design, but the entire chip company,' a semiconductor company other than Intel. Also appeals to provide generous support. CEO Colefield said, 'The EU and the United States are reforming industrial policy, but this reform is not because we in the semiconductor industry have always wanted it, but it will inevitably be defeated if we do not increase our international competitiveness. I think it's the body. '
