Lawmakers express concerns that data centers will raise electric bills

Senator Schiff, We urge you to speak with Senator Cotton about his DATA Act. You should find some common ground.

““I am introducing legislation to try to make sure that it’s the data centers that bear the cost,” Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA) said in a video shared by his office Monday. 

Sen. Schiff’s new “Energy Cost Fairness and Reliability Act” requires data centers to bring their own energy. 

“We’ve got to incentivize these data centers not to rely on the same energy sources that you or I are relying on,” Schiff said.”
