LAS VEGAS -- Technology competition between the U.S. and China is "all about national security," and more investment in emerging industries is needed for America to keep up with Asia's biggest economy.

That was the message from the U.S. senators speaking at a panel at the CES consumer electronics event in Las Vegas on Friday, which is being held against a backdrop of U.S.-China tensions over semiconductors and other key tech areas.
