Data Center Opposition Creating Strange Bedfellows in Texas

Republican Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller says Democrats are right on the issue and is blasting Governor Greg Abbott for not calling an immediate special session to address data center regulation. Meantime in the first Texas city to ban data centers, San Marcos Council Member Amanda Rodriguez says it was the people who forced the ban and those folks were Republicans, Democrats, Independents, and a bunch of Texans who’ve never even engaged with politics before. You won’t find a bigger issue in the state right now. And in this episode of Y’all-itics, you’ll learn more about that first ban, how the state might respond, and you’ll hear some pretty harsh words coming from a Republican… about Republicans.
