Rhode Island Congressman wants answers in the wake of Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's resignation.
"This week I led colleagues in calling for a full investigation into Jensen Huang's actions by Trump's Department of Commerce because they put us all at risk," Amo said in a statement issued Thursday, the day of Huang's resignation.
"No CEO or government official should be allowed to put America's technological edge in jeopardy," Amo said.
"Now, Trump must crack down on advanced chip exports before he hands our AI advantage to an adversary," the congressman said.
"And we still need answers: What did this administration know, when did they know it, and who signed off on these exports?" Amo said.
"Stop the shipments," he said. "Enforce the law. Give Congress and the American people the answers they deserve. Our security is not for sale."
