Senator Warren Statement on President Trump's Clearing the Sale of Advanced AI Chips to China

Washington, D.C. - United States Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), Ranking Member of the Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee, released the following statement:

"When NVIDIA's billionaire CEO received a last-minute invite to board Air Force One in Alaska, we all knew what was coming. As he continues to lose his self-inflicted trade war with China, President Trump is handing Xi Jinping some of our most advanced AI chips. That might help the President curry favor with Xi or NVIDIA's billionaire CEO, who is helping to bankroll the Trump ballroom. But it also gives NVIDIA a green light to prioritize China over U.S. customers - including startups and universities - and will help China turbocharge its bid for technological dominance and build a more powerful military. This is a disaster for long-term American prosperity and security."
