During the meeting, she provided a readout of the recent Supply Chain Summit, co-hosted by the Department of Commerce and the Council on Foreign Relations. Raimondo emphasized the importance of strengthening supply chain resilience and bolstering national security, particularly through the work of the Department’s Supply Chain Center.
Raimondo sought input from ACSCC members on Buy America provisions related to semiconductor supply chains. She underscored the Biden-Harris Administration’s commitment to revitalizing domestic chip manufacturing and supporting U.S. jobs. The Secretary also highlighted the critical role of AI Data Center supply chains in supporting national and economic security and expressed gratitude to ACSCC members for their collaboration with the Department on its supply chain resiliency efforts.
Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Industry and Analysis Grant T. Harris joined Raimondo at the meeting. Harris highlighted the launch of a diagnostic tool known as SCALE, which uses a comprehensive set of indicators to assess structural supply chain risk across the U.S. economy. He noted that the Supply Chain Center will continue engaging with key stakeholders, including ACSCC members, to enhance collaboration on supply chain security and resilience initiatives.
