  "account": "US Senate Banking Committee chairman Tim Scott has sent letters to commerce secretary Howard Lutnick and Nvidia's former CEO Jensen Huang, urging them to testify about recent developments at Nvidia. Huang resigned from Nvidia after reports surfaced of a romantic relationship with Alice Huang, a businesswoman suspected of spying for the Chinese government. Scott wrote on X, \"Recent reports raise serious concerns about our national security and the protection of sensitive US technology.\" He stated that he would consider subpoenaing Huang if he does not voluntarily appear before the Senate Banking Committee. White House officials are also discussing the possibility of removing Lutnick from his position, with calls for action growing across Washington. Three House committees have also written to Huang, Nvidia's General Counsel Tim Teter, and Under Secretary of Commerce Jeffrey Kessler, requiring their appearances for closed-door transcribed interviews or facing potential subpoenas. China has denied Alice Huang's allegations of espionage, and US Attorney General Todd Blanche stated that the Department of Justice is still determining her status. Alice Huang was unavailable for comment.",
