The investment takes into account anticipated federal grants and credits under the CHIPS and Science Act and will create 17,000 jobs by the end of the decade. President Joe Biden last month signed a bill to provide $52.7 billion in subsidies for semiconductor production and research and to boost efforts to make the United States more competitive."Today's announcement by Micron is another big win for America," Biden said in a statement. "We will make EVs, chips, fiber optics and other critical components here in America and we will have an economy built from the bottom up and middle out.

The company has plans to invest $40 billion through the end of the decade to build U.S. manufacturing facilities in multiple phases to support its sites in Japan, Taiwan, Singapore and smaller a facility in Manassas, Virginia.Reporting by Yuvraj Malik and Akash Sriram in Bengaluru; Editing by Sriraj Kalluvila and Arun Koyyur
