In Congress, Greg has continued that record of results by:

-
Supporting Arizona’s semiconductor industry, including Intel, TSMC, and Amkor, and introducing the Semiconductor Supply Chain Security and Diversification Act to build a resilient Western Hemisphere supply chain that strengthens North American manufacturing.
-
Securing $1 million in federal investment for Maricopa Community Colleges to expand its bioscience program through the House Appropriations process.

Passing the Drone Infrastructure Inspection Grant Act, included in the bipartisan FAA Reauthorization Act, which provides $100 million for local governments to purchase or contract drone inspection services and another $100 million for workforce training in this technology.
-
Advocating for North American trade and nearshoring, helping pass the United States–Mexico–Canada Agreement (USMCA) to strengthen Arizona’s trade partnerships and lower tariffs for exporters and small businesses.
