Senate Banking chair seeks testimony from Lutnick and ex-Nvidia CEO Huang

sg.news.yahoo.com —

US Senate Banking Committee Chairman Tim Scott has requested testimony from Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and former Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang over national security concerns tied to the AI company and export oversight. Huang resigned from Nvidia following reports of a relationship with Alice Huang, a businesswoman suspected by US authorities of spying for China. Lawmakers also criticized Lutnick for refusing to blacklist dozens of Chinese companies and questioned Nvidia export controls. Scott warned he may subpoena Huang if he declines to appear voluntarily. Three House committee chairs separately demanded closed-door interviews with Huang and Nvidia's counsel in early December, while White House officials discussed whether Lutnick should be removed.
