Despite locals’ health concerns, the Memphis Chamber of Commerce has gone to unusual lengths to promote Elon Musk’s xAI data center, including sending a mailer with inaccurate information. @wendicthomas.bsky.social

Every state needs their AG to fight like hell against these Data Centers! Not only are they huge polluters (air, noise levels and all-night lighting), they use billions of gallons of our groundwater.

It's heartening to finally see that Chambers of Commerce are being outed for what they really are and always have been.

One thing I ran into during my time in the legislature was exactly how many people think the "Chamber Of Commerce" is some kind of official org or something. Its not - its THE primary business lobbyist in the United States, at all levels. They shovel huge amounts of money for big business. Thats it.
