A provision in the reconciliation package—the ironically named Big Beautiful Bill—could have devastating consequences for the scenic beauty of communities across the country. If passed as written, this bill would strip state and local governments of the ability to regulate the development of artificial intelligence infrastructure, including data centers, by tying broadband funding to a lengthy moratorium on AI regulations.

That means if a town or state wants to limit where AI data centers can be built—or protect neighborhoods, farmland, or scenic landscapes from unchecked development—they could lose out on critical federal support.

This is a dangerous precedent. It silences local voices, overrides environmental protections, and threatens the character of communities from coast to coast.

As it stands, this language can be removed from the bill with the opposition of 51 Senators. Your action today can help remove this dangerous language and protect states’ rights to choose their futures without having to sacrifice critical broadband funding!

The Senate will vote on the reconciliation spending package as early as Monday, June 30. Tell your Senators: Oppose the Big Beautiful Bill unless this harmful AI preemption language is removed.

Local communities must retain the right to decide what gets built in their own backyards. Use the form below to send a message to your Senators today.
