Congrats Bobby and Brooke for winning your runoff elections in Tempe! This is a HUGE win for climate!

We don’t know yet if this massive utility merger will make it past federal and state regulatory agencies. We do know that electing local leaders to advocate for people over corporations will be key to lowering our bills and stopping data centers. insideclimatenews.org/news/18052026/…

Data centers are expected to increase power sector carbon emissions by a shocking 13%-28% over the next 3.5 years, a new study finds. 📈 This is a crisis.

Developers are aiming to build the biggest data center complex in Virginia. It would be 22 million square feet, which works out to four Disneylands, or 61 Pentagons, or—because this is America—382 football fields. And developers are trying to buy up people’s houses and property to do it. motherjones.com/politics/2026/…

This is Lake Corpus Christi in Texas The dark scarred patches in you see are exposed lakebed, this used to all be underwater There is a drought and an extreme demand for the water for industrial uses like refineries The Mathis water crisis is so great, they’re drilling emergency wells and could lose pumping ability soon Lakefront homes have lost value. Businesses like marinas are hurting. The state park is still open but it looks very different Keep in mind, Texas a while is in an extended drought, yet they are going from 40 data centers to 400 planned data centers in the next 2 years It’s insanity

🗳️ Early Voting for The Runoff Has Begun! Polls are open 7 AM to 7 PM today through Friday, and you can vote at any Vote Center in Travis County. As we enter the final stretch, we want to say thank you. Thank you to every volunteer, educator, student, union member, organizer, community leader, and supporter who has believed in this campaign and helped build this people-powered movement.

Every endorsement, donation, conversation, and door-knock has brought us closer to a Texas that works for everyone. Now let’s finish strong. Juntos for Justice, Unidos for Change! ✊💙

Data center builders don’t tell the public how much water they use, according to a new report — and the industry is encroaching into water-stressed and vulnerable communities. cal.news/43ixsrr 📸 Gina Ferazzi

We are thrilled to endorse Dan Brotman and Alek Bartrosouf for Glendale City Council!

Data centers are eating up more and more of our electricity—and it’s causing chaos in the grid. Families shouldn’t have to worry if their bills are going to shoot up or if their power will shut off because a data center moves in next door.

Let's go, Nebraska! @NebraskaDems
