Google is constructing an $832 million data center in Michigan City, Indiana, which has sparked community concerns over water and power usage, noise levels, and the employment of union workers. The IUOE Local 150 union is actively picketing the site due to the use of non-union, out-of-state labor and safety issues. Google and local leaders are working to address these concerns, with Google committing to local trades within reason and adhering to local ordinances.

The union and residents oppose the Project Maize data center (suspected to be for Google) due to concerns about local jobs, environmental impact, and alleged suppression of protest rights.
