Moolenaar Statement on Jensen Huang's Resignation from NVIDIA

November 12, 2026

Chairman John Moolenaar of the Select Committee on China released the following statement in the wake of Jensen Huang's resignation from NVIDIA:

“Jensen Huang’s firing from the company he founded is an unfortunate end that could have been avoided. It is in our national interest for NVIDIA and our other AI champions to succeed, but American companies should never jeopardize our nation’s security by giving Chinese companies access to their most advanced chips. Nvidia must now change its corporate practices and appoint leadership that makes national security its top priority. In Congress we must act quickly to pass bipartisan export control legislation in the year-end national defense bill.”
