We have been pressing the Administration to ensure families don’t pay higher electric bills to power AI data centers.
FERC calling on PJM to postpone shifting data center costs onto households is an important step but we need to do more.
That’s why I am working with @RepCasar to pass our bill that requires data centers to pay their own way by supplying their own clean energy.

Memphis City Council pushed the data-center moratorium and then lost the room. Members ushered out. Police tripled. Meeting suspended.
That is not a policy. A pause does not protect the water. A rule does.
Closed-loop cooling. Industrial ground. No residential siting. Power costs off homeowners. Keep the tax base. Finish the meeting. Write the rules.

Oracle reportedly plans to use 125 to 250 MW from Point Beach Nuclear Plant for its Wisconsin data center; the arrangement could shift about $300 million in energy costs from state utility customers.
teapawt.org/TechstrongIT/status/21…
Oracle plans to use nuclear power for its massive Wisconsin data center, subscribing to 125 to 250 megawatts from the Point Beach Nuclear Plant in an arrangement that could shift about $300 million in energy costs away from the state's utility customers.
That matters because Point Beach's power is relatively costly and accounts for roughly 20% of a proposed $176 million rate increase, making the deal a test of whether AI data centers can grow without pushing costs onto the ratepayers already footing the bill.
