And so if we did a comprehensive look at where we should be siting data centers across the country, what would be best for industry, what would be best for the communities, I think you would actually allay a lot of the concerns that people who are supporting data center moratoriums have about these data centers.

You represent a region that you cannot understate the footprint there.

70% of the world's internet traffic flowing through servers inside what are essentially tin cans.

If my district were a country, it would be one of the top five countries in terms of number of data centers and the amount of internet running through it.

What, therefore, is your position and how you represent your constituents?

Because there is a split, right?

NIMBY is one pocket.

There is job creation.

There is economic value created from the build-out that we're seeing.

Data centers don't create a lot of jobs, but the local government likes it because they create a lot of revenue for local government and state government.

They also don't create a lot of jobs, which means less traffic through those communities, less schools you have to build, less roads you have to build.

So the local government loves it, which is why they keep approving them.

But it's short-sighted because then you start to create energy problems.

You start to have to build energy infrastructure through communities that weren't expecting it, didn't sign up for it.

You lower home values.

And people get angry about it, and rightfully so.

It's more than just nimbyism.

I think people have legitimate concerns.

But we can do this as a country.

We can build out the data centers we need to build out in this country.
