U.S. lawmakers introduced the SEMI Investment Act to extend the Advanced Manufacturing Investment Tax Credit to 2031. The bill clarifies that critical materials suppliers, including those for foundational materials, would be eligible for the credit to ensure supply chain stability.

Introduced in November 2025, the SEMI Investment Act expands the CHIPS Act tax credit to include upstream materials like substrates and lithography materials. The goal is to reduce dependence on China and achieve technological sovereignty in AI and advanced technologies.
During a 'Tax Day' event on Capitol Hill, industry executives urged passage of the SEMI Investment Act. The bill would expand eligibility to cover the full supply chain, including specialty chemicals and gases currently excluded from the CHIPS Act incentives.
