Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) has urged the Department of Commerce (DOC) to blacklist a Chinese chip design firm and impose further restrictions on Chinese tech companies as they allegedly bypass U.S. export-control measures to help U.S.-sanctioned China entities.

In a letter dated Dec. 20 to Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo, Mr. Rubio raised concerns that Chinese company Brite Semiconductor has used American technology and funds to provide chip design services to Chinese military companies.
