Mr. MRVAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to express my profound appreciation that the House is expected to consider this week H.R. 4521, the America COMPETES Act of 2022.

Indiana's First Congressional District is home to an incredible manufacturing, steel, and industrial workforce. These workers can compete with anyone in the world. When they are provided with a level playing field, they can thrive in our global economy.

I am pleased that the America COMPETES Act will take historic strides to defend the American worker, our manufacturing base, and grow our economy.

Together we can take action in this legislation to address supply chain vulnerabilities, increase the production of American-made semiconductors, and improve our ability to defend against illegally traded goods.

I commend all the leaders for advancing this legislation, and I look forward to its prompt consideration on the House floor.
