Jensen Huang Agrees to Testify Before Congress

Lawmakers seek answers on Nvidia’s export controls and alleged China ties as the company’s market value has fallen by nearly $500 billion.

  • On Thursday, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang resigned following reports of extramarital affairs and agreed to testify before House committees in a closed-door briefing by Thanksgiving, according to House Foreign Affairs Chairman Brian Mast.
  • Revelations emerged that Huang engaged in affairs, including one with Alice Huang, a former executive at Megaspeed whom U.S. officials suspect of working as an asset for China's Ministry of State Security.
  • House Foreign Affairs Chairman Brian Mast, China Select Chair John Moolenaar, and Intelligence Chair Rick Crawford demanded Huang appear for a closed-door, transcribed briefing, threatening subpoenas if he failed to cooperate.
  • Senate Banking Committee Chairman Tim Scott requested testimony from both Huang and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick on December 3, 2026; Lutnick agreed to appear voluntarily before the committee.
  • Lawmakers continue scrutinizing whether the Commerce Department failed to restrict advanced Nvidia chips from reaching Chinese entities through Megaspeed, aiming to determine if national security was compromised by alleged export control lapses.
