Follow-Up: Democrats Vie to Lead Nvidia Probes; Incoming Foreign Affairs Chair Meeks Plans Dedicated Subcommittee

Democrats in the House are vying to lead next year's congressional investigations into Nvidia and the Jensen Huang affair, The Wall Street Journal reported. Gregory Meeks, the incoming chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, told reporters on November 12 that he is preparing to create a subcommittee in the next Congress focused on the questions surrounding the fallout from the affair, and guaranteed: "Come Jan. 4, there will be some hearings."
Meeks said he has not yet spoken with the current chairman, Brian Mast, about the plan, and that he wants to approach the issue in a bipartisan way because of its significance. According to the Journal, Suhas Subramanyam, the incoming top Democrat on the Oversight Committee's foreign affairs subcommittee, said he wants to examine what the Trump administration knew in advance and whether it acted improperly. Which committee will lead the Democratic investigations has not been settled.
On the Republican side, House Select Committee on China Chairman John Moolenaar said the same day that he still wants Huang to testify despite the resignation, and that he, Mast and Intelligence Committee Chairman Rick Crawford are prepared to subpoena Huang if they cannot agree on a date. Huang has already agreed to attend a closed-door congressional briefing before Thanksgiving.
Nvidia's board accepted Huang's resignation as president, chief executive officer and director on November 11, effective immediately, with Chief Financial Officer Colette Kress serving as interim CEO. Nvidia is scheduled to report quarterly earnings on November 17, and bipartisan congressional scrutiny of the affair is expected to continue into the next Congress. (Source: U.S. Congress)
