WASHINGTON—Intel has instructed lawmakers and officers that it’s delaying indefinitely the groundbreaking ceremony for a deliberate multibillion-dollar chip-manufacturing facility in Ohio, signaling frustration over uncertainty in Congress about laws that would supply help for the U.S. chip trade.
The ceremony had been tentatively scheduled for July 22. Intel knowledgeable the workplace of Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine and members of Ohio’s congressional delegation on Wednesday that it was delaying the groundbreaking “due in part to uncertainty around” the chips-related laws, referred to as the Bipartisan Innovation Act, based on an electronic mail reviewed by The Wall Street Journal.
