The announcement is reportedly set to include a new manufacturing program to bring more of Apple’s supply chain into the U.S.
Apple has already announced $500 billion for US manufacturing over the next four years, including a new server manufacturing plant in Houston, a supplier academy in Michigan, and additional spending with domestic suppliers. Today’s $100 billion takes Apple’s total commitment to $600 billion.
