House Speaker Mike Johnson said on November 12 that a congressional consensus was developing around limiting semiconductor exports to China, Reuters reported.

Johnson linked the discussion to recent developments surrounding Jensen Huang. He supported tighter limits but reserved personal judgment on the underlying controversy, saying facts still needed to be determined.

The comments show the potential policy consequences of Huang’s departure. They do not announce a new export rule or establish that Congress has passed legislation.
