Blocks federal money for building data centers on productive farmland.
The problem
Data centers are being built on prime agricultural land, reducing the amount of land available for farming and food production across the country.
The proposal
The bill stops federal funding for constructing, expanding, or renovating data centers on prime farmland and certain other agricultural lands.
The impact
Data center companies, farmers, and agricultural communities are affected. Federal funding for data center projects on farmland would be eliminated or redirected elsewhere.
Keeps productive agricultural land available for farming and food production. Preserves soil quality and farming capacity for future generations. Helps maintain rural agricultural communities.
Protects the nation's ability to grow its own food by preventing farmland loss. Ensures agricultural land stays available for domestic food production.
Helps preserve farming-based economies and communities. Keeps agricultural jobs and rural livelihoods intact by preventing farmland conversion.
Pushes data centers to develop on non-farmland sites, such as urban areas or brownfields. Encourages more efficient use of already-developed land.
May slow expansion of data centers needed for internet, cloud computing, and technology services. Could make it harder to meet growing data storage demands.
Forces data center companies to build on more expensive land in developed areas. Could raise costs for data services and technology companies.
Eliminates federal money that might have helped fund data center projects. Affects rural areas that could benefit from federal infrastructure investment.
Only stops federal funding, not private investment. Companies could still build on farmland using their own money, limiting the bill's effectiveness.

Money from people who work there, not from the company. Not tied to this bill.
Itemized individual contributions via FEC, grouped by the employer each contributor self-reported. Companies and unions cannot contribute to federal candidates from their treasuries, so these totals are money from people who work at an employer — never from the organization itself. They are campaign contributions covering a full election cycle and are not connected to this bill.
