Following rumors of incoming layoffs, a recent notice filed with the Texas Workforce Commission confirms Texas Instruments is planning to cut 183 jobs in North Texas.
Records kept in accordance with the federal Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, commonly known as WARN, indicate the number of job losses that have occurred. The Texas Workforce Commission updates WARN data on a weekly basis.
A state filing confirms that the Dallas-based semiconductor company plans to lay off 163 workers in December and an additional 20 in April. The news comes as TI has continued to leverage the use of H-1B visa workers, including 71 during the first half of 2025 alone, as recently reported in The Dallas Express.
“Texas Instruments Incorporated (“TI”) informed employees today that it is making changes that align resources to best support the company’s long-term strategy, resulting in a closure of the 150mm production line as its DFAB worksite located in Dallas, Texas,” read the letter filed with the state agency, per MYSA.
Amid the cutbacks, TI has also made headlines in recent months, announcing plans to invest over $60 billion to produce “billions of foundational semiconductors in the U.S.” This reportedly includes roughly $40 billion in investment for its new semiconductor plant in Sherman and $6 billion for its campus in Richardson. According to Texas Instruments, the new plants are expected to support up to 60,000 jobs.
How many of the positions will be filled using H-1B visa workers remains unclear.
