The White House is thinking about replacing Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick after concerns he didn't do enough to stop sensitive tech from reaching China.
The issue heated up with reports that NVIDIA's co-founder Jensen Huang might have connections to someone linked with Chinese intelligence, raising questions about how U.S.-made chips could end up in the wrong hands.
Kennedy and Warren seek Lutnick testimony
Lutnick is under fire for not cracking down on Megaspeed, a company accused of sending US chips to China, and for leaving them off a key government watch list.
Even though President Trump still backs him, Senators John Kennedy and Elizabeth Warren want Lutnick to testify in Congress about what the Commerce Department is doing to close loopholes and keep American technology secure.
