US lawmakers urge Trump administration to ban Chinese memory chips, citing national security risks

US lawmakers are urging the Trump administration to ban Chinese memory chips, specifically targeting CXMT, citing national security risks. This proposed ban could tighten global supply, increase technology costs, and shift competitive advantages toward US and allied firms. The push highlights geopolitical tensions affecting tech supply chains and may reshape global semiconductor dynamics. Lawmakers are specifically calling for a prohibition on American firms buying CXMT chips to mitigate security threats and alter the current industry landscape.
