The North Dakota Senate recently defeated Senate Bill 2406, a legislative measure that aimed to impose a moratorium on public officials signing non-disclosure agreements related to data centers and other industrial projects. The bill was rejected by a vote of 32-15 during a Senate floor session at the North Dakota State Capitol. The proposal sought to enhance transparency regarding these developments by preventing public officials from entering into NDAs.
Senators Tim Mathern, D-Fargo, and Janne Myrdal, R-Edinburg, were mentioned in connection with the discussion surrounding the bill. The defeat means that the state will not implement a ban on such non-disclosure agreements.
