Senators move to reinstate ZTE ban as Department of Commerce said ZTE must replace its entire board of directors within the next 30 days

Meanwhile, the Department of Commerce says the seven-year export ban on ZTE stays in place until the firm pays a $1 billion fine and places an additional $400 million in escrow in a U.S.-approved bank.
