Description
Description | State Rep. Vikki Goodwin, the Democratic nominee for lieutenant governor in Texas, called for a special legislative session to address the growing data center crisis in Texas. The session aims to consider urgent reforms including transparency in data center developments, protection of local water supplies, community feedback mechanisms, and review of state tax incentives related to data centers. The rapid development of large-scale data centers is threatening to outstrip existing water and energy infrastructure in Texas, placing pressure on communities facing rising utility costs and water supply challenges. |
