.@MalloryMcMorrow's plan on data centers: Data center companies, not Michigan families, pay for their own energy and grid upgrades – so rates don't go up. Data centers can't harm our water, air, or environment. Data centers pay their fair share in taxes to fund our schools, roads, and communities. Data centers are built with local union labor.

J Street and the Muslim Public Affairs Council partner together frequently to demonstrate the important values the Jewish and Muslim American communities share, despite disagreements we may have on policy issues from time to time. In today’s statement we express both our joint commitment to stand together against Islamophobia and antisemitism as well as to oppose the war in Iran and the potential for the deployment of ground troops. It is always an honor to work with MPAC. jstreet.org/press-releases…

great question! I think progressives are directionally correct when it comes to the concentration of corporate power in certain sectors, questioning the usefulness of providing security aid to Israel, and generally, when it comes to taxing very rich people.

@treeaston Which policy issues should moderates concede to progressives in order to expand the tent?

Why we’re recirculating a recording that leaked September that McMorrow was not on, and presenting it as new, is beyond me But since then she’s said Israel is committing a genocide, on AIPAC’s shit list & shares Bernie & AOC’s position on blocking the sales of offensive weapons

Rogue DNC@theroguednc

Drop Site News obtained a private donor call where the McMorrow campaign discussed her strong pro-Israel stance. Volunteer Rob Kalman praised her “outstanding” AIPAC position paper, which he said has not been made public.

Think we're missing each other's point here. Both supporters and opponents of a 'data center moratorium' should want to fix the grid. Hyperscalers could fund and coordinate new upgrades to the system as soon as today. Get AI to pay for massive public benefits and lower costs.
Josh Miller-Lewis@jmillerlewis

A suggestion for the people criticizing AOC and Bernie for wanting to ban data centers without a plan: read the bill first. The entire point of their data center moratorium is to force companies and the government to protect working people before we rapidly expand AI.

When voters were pressed on trans rights for people under the age of 18, Americans were overwhelmingly resistant. “This is some of the most stable polling we have seen over time,” @charlotteeffect said. “People strongly believe in parental rights, parental control, or the idea that children are not mature enough to make these sorts of choices and medical decisions." More on our year-long project polling trans rights and acceptance in America. puck.news/texas-senate-r…

Worth reupping as Bernie and AOC introduce their data center moratorium today. Liberals and progressives alike should find a way to take advantage of AI growth instead of banning it without a plan. Get these companies to invest in the grid and lower *our* electricity costs.
Searchlight Institute@SearchlightInst

At Searchlight, we believe in charting the future of public policy. That includes finding real answers to the significant policy questions of the data center buildout and our nation's aging grid. @DanielleDeis explains @JaneAFlegal's pitch for an American Grid Infrastructure Fund — which would ensure private gains from AI are channeled into public benefits and lower electricity costs for everyone.

The new AMERICANA is out, and asks a question that's been pinging around Dem circles: What happened to the climate movement? Why are the groups that bird-dogged presidential candidates about net zero now focused on Gaza and ICE? semafor.com/article/03/25/…

From our year-long polling project on trans rights and acceptance: 69% believe businesses and landlords should be required to treat trans people equally. And 70% agree that trans people should be able to live their lives free from discrimination and bullying. At the same time, 70% of voters believe parents should have access to everything happening to their children at school. 56% say schools should inform parents if a child questions their gender identity. 58% support policies requiring trans athletes to compete on teams matching their birth sex.

What if lawmakers channeled America's data center buildout — a buildout that is already well underway — into massive new investments in our nation's aging grid? @JaneAFlegal offers a way forward: an American Grid Infrastructure Fund. More energy, lower costs, and families would only pay for the electricity they use themselves.

This is a really interesting dynamic, showing how Warren and her team rely on "The Groups" to try to impose discipline on the progressive side of D.C. She's trying to lean on pro-housing groups to not push for a conference so she can strong-arm the House into passing the BTR ban.

There is a path forward for transgender rights — if we take it. But to start on that path, we need a reset on trans advocacy and education. Focus on civil rights and equal treatment. Emphasize parents and their role raising their kids. Talk in language that everyone understands.
