Attacked tax breaks and handouts for Big Tech and data centers
It's the same bill that cut Medicaid, that took that money from your health care and gave it to data center developers. You just heard Mike Collins say that data center developers should pay their own way. Then why did you vote to give them 70 billion dollars of taxpayer funding? And will you commit to repealing that provision?Debate, October 20, 2026

First of all, no Georgia family or small business should pay a dime more to subsidize the energy consumption of these data centers. No local community should have these data centers imposed on them.Debate transcript, October 8, 2026

Artificial intelligence makes it even more important that we pass a federal privacy law.Debate transcript, October 8, 2026
