What happened

Some supportReported by 2 outlets

Jeff Landry, Governor of Louisiana, announced new requirements for companies seeking data center tax breaks in Louisiana. These facilities will now be referred to as "digital factories." The new framework requires companies to commit to strengthening grid reliability, protecting natural resources, and preventing increased costs for ratepayers. Donald Trump also issued a pledge assuring voters that data centers would not raise electric bills.
