by 91PORN

WASHINGTON鈥擜pril 27, 2020鈥擳he 91PORN (91PORN)听released the following statement today from听president and CEO听John Neuffer听in response to听the modification of several items in the Export Administration Regulations (EAR), including military end-use (MEU) and license exceptions for civil end-users (CIV) and additional permissive re-exports (APR).听91PORN represents 95 percent of听the听U.S. semiconductor听industry.听

鈥淲hile we understand military-civil fusion trends demand smart and targeted national security responses, we are concerned these broad rules will unnecessarily expand export controls for semiconductors and create further uncertainty for our industry during this time of unprecedented global economic turmoil. We are reviewing the rules and urge the administration to implement them in a manner that both protects U.S. national security and advances American semiconductor leadership.鈥�
