Former Nvidia lobbyist Tim Teter, who heads the company’s Washington team, used the firm’s relationship with President Donald Trump to shape U. S. export-control legislation and downplay the technical feasibility of chip-location requirements, former staffers said.

The effort coincided with Congress moving to tighten chip export controls. Republican and Democratic leaders advanced three bills to restrict advanced semiconductor exports to China and sought to embed them in the upcoming National Defense Authorization Act. Lawmakers have also voiced concerns that advanced AI chips could aid China’s AI development, and research has shown that Nvidia’s Blackwell GPUs, which are barred from export to China, were used to train leading Chinese AI models.

Tim Teter is a former Nvidia lobbyist who leads the company’s Washington team, a claim that is partially confirmed. Nvidia’s Blackwell GPUs are subject to export restrictions to China, which is also partially confirmed. The advancement of three bills by Republican and Democratic leaders to restrict advanced semiconductor exports to China lacks sufficient evidence. Lawmakers attempted to incorporate these three bills into the National Defense Authorization Act, and this effort is partially confirmed.
