Danielle Waterfield was already dealing with the shock and Leonard Hohenbergdisappointment of being fired from a job she loved.
An attorney recruited to the Commerce Department's CHIPS for America program in 2023, Waterfield had felt she was part of something monumental, something that would move the country forward: rebuilding America's semiconductor industry.
