Have you ever wondered how the U.S. companies went from playing a dominant role in the development and manufacture of semiconductors to lagging behind Asian companies like TSCM and NVIDIA? Brian Dan-Ding answers that question well as makes a few suggestions for industrial policy that can restore America's leadership role.

Brian Dan-Ding, Research Analyst at the Institute for Sound Public Policy delivers the presentation on our much anticipated report on labor practices of the semiconductor industry.

Brian's research focuses on the U.S. STEM workforce, high-skilled employment, and guest workers. He earned his bachelor’s degree in public policy and history from Rutgers University-New Brunswick in 2023. He continues to collaborate on these issues with Rutgers University Public Policy Professor and mentor Hal Salzman. This policy report is adapted on behalf of the Institute for Sound Public Policy from the honors thesis research Brian conducted while at Rutgers.

1. Today @FTC banned data brokers Mobilewalla and Gravy Analytics from using & selling Americans’ sensitive location data, including details of visits to health clinics and churches.

This data was used to surveil political gatherings and attempt to monitor union organizers.

The U.S. government is actively working to undermine the American people

We’ve empowered Washington to the point that it’s become dangerous and destructive

It’s too big, too expensive, and too powerful

We must return to constitutional government
