House panel chair may subpoena ex-Nvidia CEO Huang over China testimony

politico.com —

The House Select Committee on China still wants former Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang to testify despite his resignation Thursday, with Chair John Moolenaar prepared to subpoena him if no date is agreed upon. Moolenaar said discussions are ongoing with Huang, and he, along with House Intelligence Chair Rick Crawford and Foreign Affairs Chair Brian Mast, sent a letter last week summoning him. The committee seeks details on Chinese intelligence operations, data access, and Huang's lobbying on chip export policies. Nvidia announced Huang stepped down as CEO, president, and board chair, with CFO Colette Kress as interim CEO. Rep. Gregory Meeks plans bipartisan hearings starting Jan. 4, possibly creating a subcommittee focused on the fallout. Nvidia declined to comment.
