When it comes to data centers, Michigan should show the country how to do it right. That means: Data center companies, not Michigan families, pay for their own energy and grid upgrades – so rates don't go up. Data centers can't harm our water, air, or environment. Data centers pay their fair share in taxes to fund our schools, roads, and communities. Data centers are built with local union labor.

Ro Khanna: “No community should have a data center shoved down their throat. Right now you have all these states that are basically expediting data centers in local communities like Plymouth, PA that have no say. They should have the right to say no and there should be no data centers in residential communities or in farmland”

WOW 🚨 Democrats in Wisconsin EXEMPTED Data Centers from taxes on sales, electricity and electrical equipment It was signed into law by Democrat Governor Tony Evers Data Centers don’t have to pay taxes on - Electricity itself (purchased for operation of the data center) - Server equipment, networking gear, cooling systems, cabling, and more - Conduit - Substations - Uninterruptible energy equipment (e.g., UPS) - Switches and switchboards - Batteries and backup generation equipment “Pretend that our energy bills are not being raised by data centers. We are paying their taxes though. So our bills are still being raised because of data centers.”

Are Data Centers Worth the Noise to Local Communities? "Multiple cities of people have filed lawsuits and complaints against these data centers because of the noise." "The first question I ask myself is, are we gonna need data centers in America? Yes, if we wanna compete in the modern world, in the modern economy, we are going to need them. They are good for society and good for the economy."

Data centers are popping up everywhere, especially in small communities. They are banking on smaller communities not being able to push back or get the word out of what is really going on. What are these data centers really setting up for?

🚨 JUST NOW: President Trump DEMANDS New York Gov. Kathy Hochul immediately rescind her 1-year ban on new AI data centers "The Radical Left Dumocrats must not be allowed to cause us to lose Data Centers, AI, and all of this incredible new Technology, to China, and other countries!" "New York State has made a terrible decision. All of this Income, and other Benefits, will be going to Red States, and some Blue, where Data Centers are sought as Cash Cows, with Lower Taxes and Record Setting Jobs." "They must pay for their own Water and Power, and any leftover goes back to the State and local Community." "Data Centers are tremendous WINS for the States and Communities that are lucky enough to get them. New York should change its Policy, IMMEDIATELY."

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?

🚨 Data centers are TAKING OVER. 🚨 Big AI is destroying Georgia communities to power massive data centers that residents never asked for. “330 property owners are being impacted.” “21 homes are being completely demolished.” “The power lines are gonna be like 12 feet from her bedroom window.” “While she is asleep at night in her bed, Georgia Power can pull a truck up 12 feet from her window and do whatever they want because they own the property.” “This would be to provide power … to a data center that is not in the same county as my mom’s house.” “There are 3 other data centers that have already been approved.”

We have actual land in our state that is still pristine, available to use. We can build up that stuff. I would rather build a data center in one of these deals or probably FOUR data centers.”

One of the biggest Driving Forces in the Future for Jobs, are Data Centers. They are big, strong, bold, and Money Machines for the State in which they are built. Governor Kathy Hochul, for political reasons, has terminated all Data Centers being built, or to be built, in New York State. These Companies are now being sought in Alabama, Florida, Texas, Arizona, and many other States. Both the Taxes and the Jobs amount to LIQUID GOLD! New York State has made a terrible decision. All of this Income, and other Benefits, will be going to Red States, and some Blue, where Data Centers are sought as Cash Cows, with Lower Taxes and Record Setting Jobs. They must pay for their own Water and Power, and any leftover goes back to the State and local Community.

.James Talarico: We can start by cracking down on these data centers across the state, that are jacking up our utility bills, and using up all our water. We just found out that Ken Paxton, the most corrupt politician in Texas, has taken nearly half a million dollars from data center companies. That explains why as Attorney General, Ken Paxton ignored our neighbors in Hood County after they asked him to help temporarily block the construction of a data center in their community. Texans cannot afford a senator who's bought by big data centers. In the Senate, I will fight to stop data centers from being built in our communities if they cannot meet the most basic demands of those communities.

ABC News investigated and found more than 3,000 data centers are already operating nationwide At least 1,000 more planned Residents near data centers are seeing much as 50%+ increases on their electric bills “ABC7 has also been covering public meetings over proposed data centers and there are questions about water use and the environment. The i-team in ABC News studied this private company's data center map and found that there are at least 4,302 data center projects across the U.S. Large and small. Of those, 3,038 are currently operational with another 1,203 either under construction or plan for construction. 61 have acquired land. In Illinois, there are 164 operating data centers with another 81 planned for construction. The largest state project plan is in Yorkville. It would be 2 gigawatts and according to the ABC7 data team would use the same energy that would power approximately 1.7 million homes more than every home in the city of Chicago.”

There are at least 2,700 data centers nationwide that are mostly run by big tech firms. In 2022, the centers consumed more than 4% of all electricity in the U.S. and that's projected to more than double by 2030. Ben Tracy looks at the data centers driving our digital lives.
