"No, not calling for a moratorium. I told you the three provisions that I'm calling for right now, no tax breaks to the large corporations, making sure that there's absolutely rock solid, not driving up the energy costs and rates to the end user. And then making sure that we have protections that they're not using and abusing our natural resources. Closed circuit loop."

"I've been talking about the data centers in three capacities. One, we absolutely need large multinational corporations paying their fair share. There should never be any tax breaks whatsoever to these folks. Two, we need absolutely locked, solid guardrails in place to make sure that these data centers are not driving up the energy costs of the end user."

"We're looking at individuals in my community that over the last two, three, four years, 25-30% increase in energy rates and also in a state with a water quality crisis ... we have to make sure that there's guardrails in place."

"If we go out and build a bunch of data centers without stopping it and think about the consequences of it, I think we end up destroying a lot of towns ... the water quality, the electricity impact, the sound pollution ... is just going to end up driving people crazy."
