Rep. Byron Donalds introduces federal bill to limit data center utility cost increases
Rep. Byron Donalds introduced federal legislation requiring data center operators to mitigate their impact on local water and electricity prices. Donalds argued that protections for ratepayers and the environment must be a prerequisite for any new construction. This proposal mirrors Florida's SB 484, which aims to protect state utilities from industrial strain. The debate over infrastructure costs is emerging as a significant factor in the upcoming midterm elections.
