Tim Scott, the Republican chair of the Senate Banking Committee, said he had sent letters asking former Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick to appear before the committee, citing reports that raise serious concerns about national security and the protection of sensitive US technology. Scott said he would consider subpoenaing Huang if he did not appear voluntarily. A spokesperson for Lutnick told NBC News that he has agreed to appear voluntarily. House foreign affairs chair Brian Mast said congressional staff had spoken to Nvidia about a date and location for Huang’s testimony.

Why it matters

Lutnick’s department oversees Nvidia’s AI chip exports to China, and House Speaker Mike Johnson said there is a growing consensus in Congress on limiting those exports.
