COVER STORY: The CHIPS Act: Rebuilding America's technological infrastructure | Watch Video
In today's wired world, chips power more than just computers. Cars, appliances, even toys rely on tiny silicon semiconductors, the vast majority of which are made in Taiwan. Supply chain disruptions caused by natural disasters or geopolitics could put America's chip supply in jeopardy – and its whole economy at risk. The $280 billion CHIPS Act aims to rebuild America's critical technology infrastructure, including the subsidizing of chip manufacturing facilities in the U.S. Correspondent David Pogue looks at how Silicon Valley is partnering with the government to ensure our country's technological leadership, and why not everyone is happy about it.

U.S.: Donna's Law: A new suicide prevention tool | Watch Video
In any given year, suicide accounts for between 60-65% of all gun deaths in the United States (approximately 25,000). So far, three states have passed legislation called Donna's Law, which would allow people who fear that they may become suicidal to place themselves (voluntarily and confidentially) on a "do not sell" list, to block their purchase of a gun. Correspondent Susan Spencer looks at an innovative way to save lives.
