鈥�91成人 welcomes the Biden-Harris Administration’s new plan to tackle challenges facing the U.S.-China trade relationship, as well as its focus on ensuring U.S. trade policies protect the interests of American workers and businesses, including U.S. semiconductor companies.聽We continue to strongly believe tariffs on semiconductors and associated products are, in effect, a damaging tax on U.S. chipmakers and consumers. We welcome the Biden Administration鈥檚 decision to resume the tariff exclusion process, which is important to relieve unnecessary burdens on our economy, and look forward to providing input into this process.鈥�
