Representative Ro Khanna introduced a "Data Center Bill of Rights" on Thursday, establishing a federal framework for communities to oppose the expansion of artificial intelligence data centers. The bill aims to provide communities with the right to challenge the growth of these facilities. This initiative comes amid a broader trend of data center development and associated concerns.
