    Governors tighten data center rules as election pressure mounts

    Multiple U.S. governors announced or tightened restrictions on data centers ahead of midterm elections as public opposition mounts. Pennsylvania's Shapiro imposed new standards requiring local approval, full electricity cost coverage, and water-use limits. Texas's Abbott ordered regulatory holds on projects and promised legislative restrictions including removal of tax breaks. Arizona's Hobbs secured a three-year moratorium on sales tax exemptions, New York's Hochul imposed a one-year ban on large facilities, and Illinois's Pritzker halted new exemptions. Governors previously courted data center investment but reversed course due to community concerns over land use, power consumption, and water depletion.
