...and it leaves out where Sen. Schumer directly contradicted Lutnick when he claimed Trump had enabled it.

The project’s groundbreaking ceremony, held at White Pine Commerce Park, marked the beginning of Micron’s $100 billion investment in central New York. The Clay facility is part of Micron’s broader plan to invest $200 billion in semiconductor manufacturing across the U.S.

During ceremonious remarks, Micron CEO Sanjay Mehrotra touted the investment as one of the largest private manufacturing investments in U.S. history, expected to create 9,000 direct jobs and thousands more indirect jobs over the next 20 years.

“We’re here today because of the core drive from President Trump,” Lutnick said. “This groundbreaking only got scheduled at the end of December because of the Trump administration.”

Schumer, however, praised the federal CHIPS and Science Act passed under former President Joe Biden as a key factor in Micron’s commitment to central New York. Schumer said the legislation helped allow the federal government to “unlock billions of dollars” in incentives for semiconductor facilities.

“There’s a real future here, a real future in tech manufacturing,” Schumer said after the ceremony. “Have faith in central New York.”
