Washington, D.C. - Ranking Member Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), released the following statement on President and CEO of NVIDIA Corporation Jensen Huang's declining to testify before members of the United States Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs at a public hearing regarding artificial intelligence on June 11, 2026:
"I appreciate Mr. Huang's response, but the American people deserve answers in a public forum. NVIDIA sits at the center of some of the most important questions facing our country about artificial intelligence, economic competition, and national security. If Mr. Huang has time to attend a $1 million-a-head dinner at Mar-a-Lago and fly across the world to meet with President Xi Jinping of China, he should be able to find time to answer questions from Congress."
In her invitation to Mr. Huang last week, Ranking Member Warren noted that appearing as a witness would give him an opportunity to testify about NVIDIA's views on U.S. export control laws and regulations and NVIDIA's business in China. Banking minority committee staff have reached out to NVIDIA for dates and times Mr. Huang can speak to the Committee in an open setting.
