@genericartdad: We don't just subsidize the energy usage of Data centers. We end up paying for the infrastructure needed to supply them. It's in all of our interest to pass legislation requiring data centers to pay for those expansions themselves, and that's why BAAJA is getting bipartisan support.
I heard Baja fast tracks data center construction at the expense of environmental regulations. can you speak on this?

But it also undercuts native sovereignty and protections for archaeology, wildlife, environmental diversity and cultural heritage sites

Ironically when electrical costs go up from things like data centers water and wastewater costs go up and not because they use water because wastewater uses lift stations and treatment plants and that's costs a lot in power.

I work in Big Tech and am pro data centers, and I'm very in favor of forcing Big Tech companies to pay for utility upgrades.

It’s also going to increase how many data centers there are. I’m not here for that. It’s going to cut red tape on already near non existent environmental protections. We need to slow down data centers period and restructure regulations around how they work first

you are definitely using AI right now. if your phone is on, meta is scraping your phone and sending it to a data center

But have you also looked into the cuts BAAJA would make to the Section 106 of the Historic Preservation Act. How it would eliminate the government to government consultation process with Native American trials, and also cut out public processes that currently apply under the Historic Preservation Act?

The problem is, they also couched I to this act the weakening of several environmental protections, including the Clean Water Act, the Endangered Species Act, the National Environmental Policy Act, AND the National Historical Preservation Act. They just keep tacking horrible things onto good things

Yeah minor affordability benefit is not worth the loss of protection of cultural heritage, the removal of tribal sovereignty, and the destruction of our environment through permanent permitting.
