Description

Description

Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller has called on Governor Greg Abbott to hold a special session of the Texas Legislature to regulate the explosive construction buildout of data centers in the state. The call for a special session is to address concerns before more projects become permanent, with rural communities worried about impacts on infrastructure and the environment. However, it is considered unlikely that the governor will convene such a session before the next regular session in January 2027, partly due to political dynamics and the proximity of the regular session.
