I agree data centers should pay their fair share.

But NC House Republicans voted to table my amendment repealing incentives & sales tax exemptions for data centers.

They then got a fiscal note showing those policies would generate ~$50 million per year in state & local taxes.

Hardworking North Carolinians shouldn’t foot the bill for data centers.

NC House Republicans passed the Ratepayer Protection Act to make data centers pay their own way, eliminate special tax breaks, and protect families from higher energy bills.

Meta has been one of the worst offenders when it comes to the harms of social media addiction on kids. It has fiercely fought this case since 2023. Attorney General @JeffJacksonNC, @JoshStein_ as our former AG, & AGs nationwide deserve huge credit for this win for kids’ safety.
