šŸ“° News we're reading

ā€¢ Maine moves to become first state to ban data centers (northstarmonthly.com) ā€” A proposed statewide ban on large data centers would directly halt development plans at the former Loring Air Force Base in Limestone until at least November 2027. Lawmakers say the pause is meant to study electricity demand and protect ratepayers, but the bill still awaits Gov. Janet Millsā€™ decision as she balances her role as governor and U.S. Senate candidate.
