Washington Weekend: Competing for Chips & Voting for Billions 8/5/22

President Biden is set to sign the Chips and Science Act, aimed to support US semiconductor manufacturing. Senator Maria Cantwell (D-WA) discusses the bipartisan effort to boost US competitiveness with China and other major chips producers. Also in Washington, Senator Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) has finally signed off on the Inflation Reduction Act, the Democrats’ reconciliation bill that includes hundreds of billions of dollars in spending on climate, health care initiatives. CNBC’s Ylan Mui reports that her support could cement the votes needed to pass the bill; the “vote-a-rama” starts this Saturday, so the Senate will be working through the weekend. The Biden administration has declared monkeypox a national health emergency, and former FDA Commissioner Dr. Scott Gottlieb answers questions about its spread, its virulence, and the health system’s path forward. Plus, Visa CEO Al Kelly has issued a statement on the MindGeek child pornography lawsuit, and Warner Bros. Discovery hosted its first earnings call since its merger.
