Insidenova.com: A bipartisan coalition of Virginia lawmakers on Tuesday presented a series of bills aimed at addressing the rapid expansion of data centers, which have become a cornerstone of the stateâs economy but have raised concerns about energy use, environmental impact, and equitable cost distribution.
Gov. Glenn Youngkin highlighted the industryâs importance during his State of the Commonwealth address Monday, noting that âdata centers alone support 74,000 jobs, bring in $9.1 billion in Virginia GDP, and generate billions in local revenue.â He called for Virginia to remain âthe data center capital of the worldâ while ensuring state support for the industry.
However, lawmakers from both parties have emphasized the need for oversight to ensure the industryâs growth is managed responsibly.
The Center Square: Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin delivered the final State of the Commonwealth address of his term Monday after a delayed start to the 2025 General Assembly session, urging the state legislature to âkeep Virginia winningâ with bills it passes this year.
The governor began his speech by recounting how his administration and the General Assembly have delivered on priorities and policies that have made Virginia stronger.
âIn our three years together, we have built strong pillars that support a winning Virginia,â Youngkin said, listing record funding in education and learning loss recovery efforts, $5 billion in tax relief, streamlining â50,000 regulationsâ as some of their chief accomplishments.
