The senator said evidence shows that TuSimple ‘systematically shared proprietary data’ with Chinese state-linked entities
Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) is urging the Department of Justice to open a formal investigation into an autonomous trucking company that was funded by money from a prominent Chinese businessman, alleging that it had passed on sensitive information to communist China.
Hawley, a member of the Senate Judiciary and Homeland Security committees, announced on May 30 that he had sent a letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi expressing his concerns about TuSimple Holdings, which was founded in San Diego in 2015. TuSimple voluntarily delisted itself from the Nasdaq in early 2024 and rebranded as CreateAI late last year.
