​Washington, DC — ​Printed Circuit Boards are the high-tech foundation that makes modern life possible, but over the last two decades, PCB production has moved away from the United States at an alarming rate, as overseas costs were driven down by foreign investments.

“Without robust and secure domestic supply chains, U.S. production of critical microelectronics is not sustainable. This bill from Representatives Eshoo and Moore is a win-win for American workers and consumers, and our national and economic security. The ‘Supporting American Printed Circuit Boards Act of 2022’ is a critical step towards rebuilding our nation’s PCB manufacturing capacity,” said Travis Kelly, PCBAA Chairman & CEO of Isola-Group.
