We have received text from H.R. 10119: Protecting Local Control of Data Centers Act. This bill was received on 2026-08-20, and currently has no cosponsors.
Here is a short summary of the bill:
This bill would limit federal agencies from taking away or overriding state and local control over where data centers can be built and how they are approved on non-federal land.
What it would do
- States and local governments would keep their existing authority over land use, zoning, siting, and permitting for data centers located on private or other non-federal land.
- A federal agency could not override, bypass, or replace those state or local decisions for data centers.
- The federal government also could not condition federal funding for a data center project on a state or local government giving up or limiting its own authority.
Practical effect
In plain terms, the bill is meant to ensure that decisions about where data centers can be built and what approvals they need remain mainly in the hands of state and local officials, rather than being controlled by federal agencies.
