US Senate fails to advance voluntary data-center electricity bill
A September 30 motion received 57-43, short of the 60 votes required to advance the bill.
The US Senate did not advance a data-center electricity bill on September 30. The motion received 57-43, below the 60 votes required. This was a procedural vote, not final passage. Under the proposed bill, regulators would consider standards for charging large electricity users for grid upgrades. They would not be required to adopt those standards. The proposal is not an enacted mandate or a guarantee of lower household electricity bills.
