- Rally attendees criticize Gov. Shapiro for being ‘incredibly cozy’ with data center industry
Rally attendees criticized Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro for perceived close ties to the data center industry, particularly a $20 billion Amazon investment. Critics, including Colby Wesner of Concerned Citizens of Montour County, argued that records revealed 'incredibly cozy' relationships between Shapiro's administration and Amazon. Opponents also linked data center growth to resource-hungry demands and potential tax exemptions, drawing comparisons to fracking's environmental impacts.
