## Resource

Senator Katie Britt is rallying behind Donald Trump’s Ratepayer Protection Pledge to ensure data centers don’t hike electricity costs for everyday Americans, while pushing for responsible, locally-driven development—not a nationwide ban or political wedge. She argues for thoughtful, community-based decisions that balance tech growth with consumer protection, urging open dialogue over division as the U.S. races to modernize its infrastructure without sacrificing affordability.
