Ehh. Sort of.
Congress can investigate anything they want - the thinking is that this power is necessary to effectively legislate and conduct oversight.
The ban came from the executive branch. Nobody has a right to bring anything they want into the country. Wether you’re a citizen returning from vacation in Tahiti, or ZTE, you need permission. This ban is removing everyone’s permission to bring this stuff into the country.
We can argue IF this is "right" and IF these companies have been unfairly targeted, but please stop the misinformation about not having to answer to congress and requiring a court of law.
