During his confirmation hearing on Wednesday, Howard Lutnick, President Trump's nominee for Secretary of Commerce, deemed the $52 billion semiconductor subsidy program as a commendable initial step, yet underscored the need for officials to thoroughly evaluate these investments over time. He emphatically conveyed to senators the importance of ensuring that the program, as a system, is both effectively implemented and rigorously assessed.
