Stop AI Data Centers
Data centers, including those for AI, are cropping up across Texas. If we are not exceedingly smart with their design, placement, and purpose, they will cause higher water and power bills, run water wells dry, and may hurt jobs.
-
Data centers caused electricity prices to rise by 70% in some cases.
- Data centers are causing massive inflation for computers, phones and tablets which working families, small businesses, and family farmers need to provide for themselves.
-
Does not create long-term jobs. If anything, it is net negative for job creation, as however many jobs are "created," even more are "destroyed" by automation.
-
Modernizing our infrastructure, busting monopolies, and investing in small businesses are better uses of our talent.
The TX Ag Commissioner can stop, or at the very least buy time for locals and other officials to find different ways to stop, these irresponsible AI data centers from causing mass water/power inflation. On Day 1 of the job, Clayton will issue "Ag Impact Studies" to stop irresponsible AI data centers from messing with Texas.
Data centers, including those for AI, are coming to mess with Texas. With them will come higher water and power bills, dry water wells, and no real jobs. These data centers are of, by, and for Wall Street. They will harm both Main Street families and County Road farms. We need an Agriculture Commissioner who will fight to stop all irresponsible AI data centers from causing mass utility inflation and who will put Texans first, not Wall Street or Big Tech.
