民主党议员呼吁对数据中心实施更严格的限制,而共和党人则表示,这些设施可以提振经济,帮助美国在人工智能(AI)竞赛中保持领先地位。
唐纳德·特朗普总统本周再次坚定支持数据中心建设,拒绝了放缓开发的呼吁,此前他曾警告称,阻挠这些设施建设的社区“最终会变得落后且贫穷”。
亚利桑那州联邦众议员亚萨明·安萨里(民主党,亚利桑那州)上个月告诉福克斯新闻数字频道,亚利桑那州需要暂缓数据中心的扩张,直到该州全面评估其长期影响。
“我们亚利桑那州需要暂停全州的数据中心扩张,直到我们真正制定出一项计划,明确我们将如何保护水资源,如何确保纳税用户不会承担额外责任,”安萨里说。

安萨里称特朗普总统对数据中心的支持“脱离实际”,称这与“绝大多数”美国人的意愿背道而驰。
“如果唐纳德·特朗普如此支持数据中心,那他应该欢迎它们建在自己的后院,”她说。
加利福尼亚州联邦众议员罗·卡纳(民主党,加利福尼亚州)提到了他提出的《数据中心权利法案》,该法案将禁止在住宅、学校、托儿设施、医院和养老院2500英尺范围内建设数据中心,并赋予社区更大的选址决定权。
卡纳驳斥了唐纳德·特朗普总统关于反对数据中心的社区会落后的言论。
“特朗普没能为被遗忘的美国民众带来任何成果,所以他不过是在病急乱投医,”他说。
伊利诺伊州联邦众议员乔纳森·杰克逊(民主党,伊利诺伊州)表示,议员们必须优先考虑对当地社区“公平”的事情。
“财富都流向了科技行业,而他们不受监管、毫无约束,也极少做慈善,”杰克逊说。

密歇根州联邦众议员黑利·史蒂文斯(民主党,密歇根州)表示,随着数据中心扩张,高额电费不应由社区承担。
“让我困惑的是,我们竟然无法确保普通纳税用户能用上低价公用事业服务,”她说。“这些数据中心本可以在这方面发挥作用。”
共和党议员在数据中心问题上存在分歧,部分人认为它们可以提振经济,其他人则强调地方自治权。
南卡罗来纳州联邦众议员南希·梅斯(共和党,南卡罗来纳州)支持为与中国竞争而进行的AI投资,但反对在居民区建设数据中心。
“我们必须在AI领域领先中国,而数据中心是其中的一部分,”梅斯说。“但关键在于,你不能把它们建在别人的后院。”
佐治亚州联邦众议员里奇·麦科米克(共和党,佐治亚州)对数据中心表示赞赏,称它们可以创造税收收入、改善当地基础设施并助力能源生产。

“你们应该为数据中心的选址争破头,”麦科米克说。“不过,我的意思是,如果某个社区不想要,那也是他们的自由。我认为他们错过了发展机遇。”
南卡罗来纳州联邦众议员拉尔夫·诺曼(共和党,南卡罗来纳州)表示,数据中心的相关决策应该留给各州和地方社区。
“我相信第十修正案赋予的权利,相信州权,”诺曼说。“让每个社区自己做主,他们会做出正确的选择。”

Trump’s data center push fractures Congress as local anger explodes: ‘Grasping at straws’

Democratic lawmakers are calling for tighter restrictions on data centers, while Republicans say the facilities could boost the economy and keep the U.S. ahead in the artificial intelligence (AI) race.
President Donald Trump doubled down on data centers this week, rejecting calls to slow development after previously warning that communities blocking the facilities would “end up being backwards and poor.”
Rep. Yassamin Ansari, D-Ariz., told Fox News Digital last month that Arizona needs to slow the expansion of data centers until the state fully assesses its long-term impacts.
“We in Arizona need to pause the expansion of data centers in the state until we really figure out a plan on how we’re going to preserve our water, how we are going to make sure that ratepayers aren’t taking on the responsibility,” Ansari said.

Ansari called President Trump’s support for data centers “out of touch,” saying it runs counter to what the “vast majority” of Americans want.
“If Donald Trump is such a big fan of data centers, then he should welcome them in his own backyard,” she said.
Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., pointed to his proposed Data Center Bill of Rights, which would ban data centers within 2,500 feet of homes, schools, childcare facilities, hospitals and nursing homes and give communities greater authority over where they’re built.
Khanna dismissed President Donald Trump’s comments that communities opposing data centers would fall behind.
“Trump has failed to deliver for the forgotten American, so he’s just grasping at straws,” he said.
Rep. Jonathan Jackson, D-Ill., said lawmakers must prioritize what’s “fair” for local communities.
“The wealth has gone into the tech sector, and they are unregulated, unbridled and not very philanthropic,” Jackson said.

Higher electricity bills shouldn’t fall on communities as data centers expand, according to Rep. Haley Stevens, D-Mich.
“It baffles me that we are just not guaranteeing, for average ratepayers, low utility bills,” she said. “These data centers could play a role in that.”
Republican lawmakers were split on data centers, with some saying they can boost economies and others stressing local control.
Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C., backed AI investment to compete with China but opposed building data centers in residential neighborhoods.
“We’ve got to stay ahead of China with AI, and data centers are a part of that,” Mace said. “But you don’t put them in somebody’s backyard and that’s the whole point.”
Praising data centers, Rep. Rich McCormick, R-Ga., said they can generate tax revenue, improve local infrastructure and support energy production.

“You should be fighting over them,” McCormick said. “But, I mean, if you don’t want one, that’s up to you. I think you’re missing out.”
Rep. Ralph Norman, R-S.C., said decisions about data centers should be left to states and local communities.
“I believe in 10th Amendment rights, state rights,” Norman said. “Let each community take ownership, and they’ll make the right decisions.”

As several states raise concerns over electricity costs, water use and development, the debate highlights growing divisions over where data centers belong in local communities.
