CNN
Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo is sending a blunt message as top Biden administration officials are set to meet with senators for a classified briefing tied to legislation that would address a critical shortage in semiconductor chips.
"The message is time's up," Raimondo said in an interview with CNN a few hours before she was scheduled to travel to Capitol Hill with top defense and intelligence officials to meet with lawmakers. "It's time to make it happen."
It's a message that comes as a sweeping proposal that includes $52 billion to turbocharge US semiconductor development and manufacturing is caught in the middle of partisan warfare, threatening its prospects.
