Much of the Louisiana #Meta project has been developed behind closed doors. Lucky, @rileyraygriffin.bsky.social of @bloomberg.com took a deep dive into how we got here… and ultimately reveals, we don’t know much about where we will end up.

Thank you to NARUC for appointing me as Co-Vice Chair of the Consumers & the Public Interest committee
This Committee plays an important role in advancing policies that reflect the needs of consumers and the public, while supporting informed, thoughtful regulatory decisions.
Utilities need expensive upgrades to handle the energy demands of data centers. So far, 33 states have initiated some form of rulemaking to protect their grids and pocketbooks.
We do not want to be left behind!
Today, we are talking about it!
North Louisiana: Tune into KTVE tonight to hear from your LPSC candidates!
Louisiana wants more data centers ➡️Data centers require a lot of energy ➡️The LA Public Service Commission must be prepared to meet this challenge wisely.
That is why we are holding a Technical Confernce this Thursday. This event is open to the public! Come make your voice heard.
Just what we all needed. 🙄
This is why my efforts will remain focused on affordability in 2026.

Calling NW Louisiana!
Tomorrow you can do something small to make a BIG impact on your bills: VOTE!
The Public Service Commissioner on your ballot will regulate utility rates, approve energy projects (including the data centers) & determine what costs are passed on to you.

One day, our rights will be not just restored, but secured. We will pull up a footstool for Leona Tate to take the rest she has more than earned. And our children will know Jim Crow 2.0 only as history as they walk to the ballot box and vote for one another.

The decision gutting the Voting Rights Act has commenced the largest rollback of Black representation in the South since the end of Reconstruction.
