In response to the Trump administration <\/em>touting<\/em><\/a> funding delivered through President Biden\u2019s historic CHIPS and Science Act as their own, <\/em>DNC Chair Ken Martin released the following statement:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSince entering office, Donald Trump has accomplished nothing but tanking our economy and sowing chaos, so it\u2019s no wonder he\u2019s trying to change the narrative and claim his predecessor\u2019s successes as his own. But try as he might, Trump can\u2019t change the facts: Instead of supporting historic technology funding and job creation secured through the CHIPS and Science Act, Trump tried to repeal it. Trump owns his disastrous economic record of offshoring, erratic trade wars, and surging prices. And he has the plummeting approval ratings to prove it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
