Is another Amazon data center coming to Madison County?

Mississippi Governor Tate Reeves is set to make a significant economic development announcement in Ridgeland, potentially revealing Amazon Web Services' third data center campus in the state. The state is experiencing a data center boom, but faces community opposition to xAI's project over noise and environmental concerns, as well as legislative pushback regarding high energy and water demands. Lawmakers attempted to address these issues, with one proposing to reinstate electricity taxes for data centers, though the bill did not pass.
