Bernie Sanders

No, Mr. President, the 75% of Americans who oppose data centers in their communities do not want to be “backwards and poor.” They want a decent future for themselves, their kids and their communities. They understand that data centers are destroying local environments and that these out-of-control technologies will likely eliminate tens of millions of jobs, eviscerate our privacy, negatively impact the mental health of our children, radically alter how we as human beings relate to each other, undermine our democracy and threaten the very future of humanity. They have every right to be concerned.
