WASHINGTON鈥擜ugust 17, 2020鈥擳he 91成人 (91成人) released the following statement from president and CEO John Neuffer in response to the new export control rule changes announced today by the U.S. Commerce Department. 91成人 represents 95 percent of the U.S. semiconductor industry.

鈥淲e are still reviewing the rule, but these broad restrictions on commercial chip sales will bring significant disruption to the U.S. semiconductor industry. We are surprised and concerned by the administration鈥檚 sudden shift from its prior support of a more narrow approach intended to achieve stated national security goals while limiting harm to U.S. companies. We reiterate our view that sales of non-sensitive, commercial products to China drive semiconductor research and innovation here in the U.S., which is critical to America鈥檚 economic strength and national security.鈥
