New Jersey residents are noticing construction crews surveying and replacing lines to upgrade power infrastructure for Data Centers Residents are paying for these upgrades These lines being updated are for a data center that’s not even close, it’s across the bridge 20 minutes away This is happening across Fairless Hills, Bristol, Middletown, and surrounding Bucks County spots due to multiple data center projects New Jersey already has 80+ data centers with more planned so these updates are happening everywhere Residents in these areas are already paying some of the power costs and grid upgrades related to data centers Welcome to corporate socialism. Money is taken from you to pay for the data centers infrastructure, but they won’t share any of the profits with you It’s called socialized losses and privatized profits

A local utility company in Illinois has plans to help lower residents electrical bills They will be requiring new data centers and planned data centers to sign 10 year contracts saying they will be responsible for paying for upgrade costs and electricity usage costs “That means any new data centers would be on the hook for power upgrades and any energy they plan to use, even if the data center ends up not getting built or if they don't use as much power as planned or if they close. So if they use the power that they're applying for, then they'll pay their fair share of the cost of maintaining and building our grid through their rates”

The US Department of Energy mapped out all of the current data centers, data centers under construction & data centers currently in the planning stages. We’ve heard for years how vulnerable our grid is. Now we are supposed to believe that it can withstand all of this new demand?

🚨 TEACHERS WERE TOLD TO TURN OFF THE LIGHTS FOR AI DATA CENTERS — AND THE STUDENTS WERE LEFT IN THE DARK This is the future they promised? Loudoun County, Virginia... one of the biggest data center hubs on Earth, welcomed 37 data centers. Then the AI boom arrived. The servers came online. The power demand exploded. Now schools are reportedly being told to cut energy use. Turn off lights. Unplug electronics. Conserve wherever possible. The facilities consuming enormous amounts of electricity keep expanding. The classrooms are being told to use less. Officials say it's about rising energy costs. But that's not the question many people are asking. The question is why the burden always seems to fall on everyone else. The data centers get built. The power demand rises. The electricity bills go up. And somehow the teachers and students are the ones being asked to make sacrifices. They said AI would transform society. Maybe it already is. Because every year it feels like the same story. The data centers need more power. The data centers need more water. The data centers need more land. The data centers keep growing. And ordinary people are told to adapt. First they built the data centers. Now the schools are turning off the lights. Who should get the electricity first: students or AI servers?

Texas is going from 40 Data Centers to over 400 in the next 2 years - Texas could use 30% of US data center power demand by 2028 - By 2030 the Texas data centers could use 161 billion gallons of water per year - The 400 data centers will use the equivalent of 9 million homes in energy usage every year I don’t want to EVER hear the words climate change ever again

AOC: And what are they asking for now? Endless energy. These companies are so desperate to profit from the AI boom that they are racing to construct thousands of giant AI data centers, jacking up utility costs for everyday Americans to pay for them. These data centers power thousands of high-intensity computer chips that are processing constantly and require massive amounts of energy to operate. Just one hyperscale data center consumes the same amount of energy in one second as 100,000 households. Because of this massive energy use, power and water utility companies must build multibillion-dollar infrastructure to keep up with the demand.

🚨 JUST IN: President Trump has just announced an agreement with tech companies REQUIRING THEM to fully cover the cost of increased electricity production required for their data centers This has been a HUGE worry of Americans worried about their electric bills spiking as more and more data centers are built, so Trump stepped in. Trump says the new electricity generated from plants built by big tech firms will actually DRIVE DOWN energy prices for consumers, as excess power will go back into the grid. "This is an HISTORIC win for countless American families and will also make our electricity grids stronger and more resilient than ever before." "They will be getting a lot of excess electricity for the data centers where they build their own plants." "It's actually going to mean the prices come DOWN."

This is very alarming Housing developers are realizing that selling parcels to data center developers is far more profitable than building homes “AI data centers aren't just using electricity and water. They're using land previously planned for homes” - 55 homes were purchased for nearly $1 million per house and knocked down to build data centers outside of Chicago - Amazon paid $700 million for land so they could build a data center instead of homes - Meta, Amazon, Microsoft, and Alphabet are spending more money on data centers than the US spent on railroads in the the interstate highway system in the 1950s, and more than the US spent on the Apollo space program States are choosing data centers over homes. There are real examples of this Northern Virginia is the center of this phenomenon known as Data Center Alley, even though the region has a shortage of more than 75,000 homes I found real devastating examples of this happening: Prince William County / Bristow, Virginia (Northern Virginia “Data Center Alley”) The homebuilder Steve Alloy’s company was preparing to develop 516 new homes when surrounding land was rapidly bought up by Microsoft, Google, and other data center operators instead. Nearby, the Village Place housing project entitled for 250 additional units had its land sold to a data center developer for $31 million Stanley Martin Homes Land Flip to Amazon, Prince William County, Virginia Residential homebuilder Stanley Martin Homes assembled 270 acres for about $51 million. They flipped most of it to Amazon for $700 million In Suburban Chicago Illinois. Stream Data Centers bought a 55 home subdivision for nearly $1 million per home, demolished the houses, and built a 2.1 million sq ft data center campus This must be stopped. We have starter home affordable crisis already

Today President Trump obtained a pledge from America’s leading tech companies that new data centers would not increase electricity prices for residential consumers. These companies (including Amazon, Google, Meta, Microsoft, OpenAI, Oracle, and xAI) signed the “Ratepayer Protection Pledge” under which they agree to cover the costs of all new power generation required for their data centers, ensuring such costs are not passed onto American households. This is a much better approach to affordability than Bernie Sanders’ total ban on new data centers, which would halt the construction boom currently driving wage growth and job growth for blue-collar workers. In fact, the Ratepayer Protection Pledge will lower electricity prices when AI companies pay for grid upgrades and sell their excess power back to the grid. Since the beginning of his second term, President Trump has championed the idea of letting our leading AI companies become power companies, and now this idea is becoming a reality thanks to his leadership and the commitments of these strong American companies. The right approach to data centers is not to stop progress altogether, but rather to protect residential rate payers from price increases, while making it easier to stand up new power generation.

🚨WATCH: The push for green energy is running head first into the push for data centers. Spotsylvania County, Virginia is home to the largest solar panel development east of the Rockies. But despite its large 6,300+ acre footprint, it doesn’t provide enough power for one large data center complex in Loudoun County. Loudoun County has more than 200 data centers, and Virginia has more than 600 data centers. More data centers are on the way.

AOC: These companies are not paying for their own energy infrastructure. People energy bills around the country are skyrocketing in order to pay for these A.I. data centers Working people are already living paycheck-to-paycheck in some states off of wages as low as $7.25 an hour. Another federal minimum wage that congress also refuses to raise. They simply cannot afford another increase to their bill. While the American people are suffering, big tech continues to demand more. More data centers, energy, more data collection, more American jobs replaced by A.I., all on the feet of the American people to pay.

Georgia is basically turning into one large data center Get ready for this, there is no legal obligation for data centers to disclose how much water they will be using - Georgia currently has about 162 data centers already - They have an additional 141 new data centers planned - Combined these data centers will use 12+ GW or more of power, this is equivalent to the usage of 10 MILLION homes - Combined water usage estimate of 35+ billion gallons per year or higher Absolutely insane There is no comprehensive federal requirement for data centers to publicly report detailed water usage. A bill was introduced called “the Data Center Water and Energy Transparency Act” to mandate reporting of energy and water consumption to states and the EPA This is an issue, here’s one example The Quality Technology Services data center in Fayette County used 29–30 million gallons of water went unmetered and unbilled for months without initial detection. Residents complained about low pressure during drought conditions. The company later paid retroactively $150,000 but faced no fines

Today I am stepping up to establish clear guardrails for data centers in New Jersey, the first comprehensive strategy like this. To make data centers pay their fair share by bringing their own energy to the table and make sure they operate transparently, add value to the grid, and support good paying jobs.

Be aware of what your electricity bill is now. Watch what happens if any AI data centers get built in your region. Your rates are going to increase dramatically because consumers are going to be forced to pay for the expansion of the power supply. If AI companies are not forced to fully fund their electricity requirements, the rest of us will pay for it. We are starting to see communities rise up and protest the building permits for AI data centers in their areas.

🇺🇸 CHARLIE KIRK LEGACY: BIBLE SALES ARE GROWING AND YOUNG AMERICANS ARE GOING BACK TO CHURCH America is trying to pull off a challenging combo move: beat everyone in the AI race and lower your electric bill at the same time. Sec. Howard Lutnick explains the Trump administration pitch to get 2 goals: more AI data centers and cheaper energy. If massive tech companies want to build power hungry data centers, they do not just take energy, they add energy too, according to Lutnick’s plan. That means more electricity on the grid, cheaper power nearby, and fewer locals feeling like big tech showed up, sucked resources dry, and left them with higher bills. AI growth, but with receipts. "If you're building a data center, you're going to give power to the grid and drive the energy costs of everybody around that data center lower. Trump is going to bring lower energy prices everywhere that a big tech company builds a big data center. Win the AI race, but drive down electricity costs so the people who live near those data centers are winners too." Source: Howard Lutnick

"Data Center Alley" a section of Virginia with the densest concentration of data centers in the country, caused the power to flicker across the East Coast. On Wednesday, July 22nd the electricity flickered on and off for about 10 minutes throughout the Eastern U.S., from Chicago to Boston to Miami. The cause appears to be a concentration of data centers straining the grid. Video from: NBC4 Washington
