TechCrunch: Democrats open inquiry into Trump administration’s handling of Nvidia chip sales to China

According to TechCrunch, Democrats opened an inquiry on Thursday into how the Trump administration handled Nvidia’s chip sales to China. Rep. Richard Neal and Sen. Ron Wyden asked Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick to preserve records tied to the export-license arrangement, and they questioned sales to Megaspeed and other Asian buyers. The letter also raised Nvidia’s donations to Trump projects and the timing of the H200 approval. It follows a separate Republican-led push for Jensen Huang to testify.
