Due to recent counterfeit electronics being intercepted, it is imperative that the control of all defense electronics be manufactured and controlled by the Defense Microelectronics Activity (DMEA) in Sacramento, California. Genuine American Defense parts are an absolute National Security issue and by manufacturing these parts domestically will only strengthen our country and create more jobs. It only takes one bad IC component to sink a submarine or cause a weapons system to fail at a critical moment. That put the lives of our military needlessly in harms way Mr President.
