Congressman calls for subpoena threat over Nvidia ceo's alleged ties to chinese intelligence
Representative Raja Krishnamoorthi has publicly stated that Congress requires detailed answers from Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang regarding his reported association with a woman suspected of having connections to Chinese intelligence. The Illinois Democrat indicated that lawmakers are prepared to issue a subpoena if Huang does not voluntarily appear to address the matter.
Beyond the personal conduct concerns, Krishnamoorthi also advocated for stricter governmental oversight concerning Nvidia's operations in China. He called for a comprehensive review of the company's existing export licenses to China and the implementation of more stringent controls. These new measures would be designed specifically to prevent advanced American semiconductor technology from reaching restricted Chinese entities. Krishnamoorthi shared these concerns during an appearance on Bloomberg Tech alongside Riley Griffin.
