What they have said
"This is where the future is. This is now. And we have to be a part of it."
"Taxpayers will not subsidize data centers, period. When state and local governments hand out corporate welfare to these massive corporations, the federal government must intervene and shut it down."
"If America wants to lead the world in AI and strengthen our national security, we have to build the energy infrastructure to support it. But we must do that without passing the costs on to working families and small businesses."
The companies creating enormous new demands for electricity should pay the costs required to serve them--pretty simple.6
Data centers should only be located where communities want them.6
As governor, I will take immediate action and support a conditional moratorium on data centers to ensure they cover one hundred percent of their utility costs, exclusively build with union labor, operate with full transparency, adhere to Ohio's environmental standards, support the needs of local communities, and bring jobs to former industrial areas that have been left behind,9
All costs for gas, water and electricity needs to be covered by data centers and their investors, not Ohio taxpayers or our communities.10
Ohio's out-of-control long-term tax incentives must be reined in.10
I do not work for data centers.11
Data centers should pay the full cost of the electricity they use.12
You cap electric rates. You make sure that they don't get these tax breaks.13
I'll require the data centers pay the full cost of their electricity, not you.14
Local communities should decide whether or not a data center comes into their community, not out of state corporations and billionaires.15

Questions
How many jobs does a data center create?
It varies a lot by site and construction crews are much larger than the permanent staff that runs a site. We only show figures linked to a primary public source. A blank means we have not linked a source yet, not zero. Source
What trades build data centers?
Electricians do the largest share of the work, followed by pipefitters and HVAC mechanics for cooling, ironworkers, equipment operators, laborers and low voltage and controls technicians. Running sites hire data center technicians, facilities staff and security. Source
How do I find a data center job near me?
Use the Find jobs here links on this page. They go straight to each company's own careers site, the local union hall and the U.S. Department of Labor apprenticeship finder. We link out and do not host listings. Source
