Activists to rally in Lansing for statewide moratorium on new AI data centers

Activists are planning a rally in Lansing, Michigan on December 16th to call for a statewide moratorium on new artificial intelligence data centers. The rally is a bipartisan effort to oppose data center development, with concerns around wasted land and water resources, corporate handouts, and a lack of transparency in the approval process. Organizers are demanding no secret deals between utilities, developers, AI companies, and government, as well as slowing down approvals and providing more public oversight.
