Governor Shapiro needs to hear from us. Email not displaying correctly?

From Pennsylvania?
Concerned about AI & Data Centers?
Want the Governor to hear your concerns?

Organizations and individuals from across Pennsylvania are invited to sign a letter to Governor Shapiro urging his participation in a statewide virtual town hall to share concerns about the fast proliferation of AI Data Centers across PA. The Better Path Coalition and No False Climate Solutions PA – coalitions that the Delaware Riverkeeper Network is a part of – are organizing the event.

We believe that the people of Pennsylvania deserve a chance to make statements to, and ask questions of, Governor Shapiro or this critical topic. The Governor has advanced initiatives that would undermine local authority to protect communities from AI data centers. He should hear what people from across Pennsylvania think about that.

State legislators are also being invited to attend. So even if the Governor isn’t interested, there will be government leaders in attendance who are, and who can take your input and use it to inform their stance and leadership on this major threat to our communities and environment

Our original request to the Governor for available dates (so we could plan around his schedule) was rejected. We were told that the schedulers don’t provide such lists. So on Tuesday, February 17, we submitted a new request, this time listing every date in March and asking them to pick one.

We are circulating this letter in the hopes of showing Governor Shapiro how much people care about this issue, and to get him to reconsider and to join us.  If he decides not to join, we have some other clever ways we will undertaking this town hall so your voices and concerns can still be heard.
