TSMC says the opening of its Arizona chip factory has been delayed due to a shortage of skilled workers. The company says it needs to bring Taiwanese workers to Arizona to get construction back on track. An Arizona union says US jobs are being threatened — and is urging lawmakers to deny the workers’ visas.
The US easily has the skills to build a factory like this… OPERATING IT once it’s built? That’s a different deal…
?
There aren’t enough Americans qualified to work in a new chip manufacturing plant.
But it’s not built and the workers they want to bring to USA is to finish building the factory
As others have said, we have plenty of workers here who can and will do the job, the issue is they don’t want to hire union employees who will do the work to current building codes. :)
