Sign up now to join with friendly folks going to Springfield on Saturday, May 30th, where we will meet and speak with our legislators on why Illinois needs regulations on data centers. A free bus ride will be available from Peoria to the Illinois State Capitol Building. Discussion, fact sheets and fun will be on the trip.

Send an email comment to your legislators in Springfield.

The POWER Act (Illinois Senate Bill 4016/House Bill 5513) includes protections from data centers’ use of water and energy, which impact everyone who pays utility and water rates. See the POWER Act fact sheet for more information.

ALSO:

Staff from the Citizens Utility Board, Faith in Place, Illinois Environmental Council, and Prairie Rivers Network, will hold a community conversation about data centers, their impacts on communities, and potential solutions and protections—both locally and statewide, at the Pekin Public Library on May 21st.
