Democrats block Senate GOP data centers bill

Original: Democrats block data centers bill, derailing Senate GOP bid to act on affordability ahead of midterms

Senate Democrats have blocked a Republican-backed data centers bill, derailing the GOP's effort to advance affordability legislation ahead of the midterm elections. The failed vote prevents Senate Republicans from showcasing action on cost-of-living concerns, an issue expected to feature heavily in the campaign. The setback highlights deepening partisan divisions in the Senate over energy, technology and economic policy.

Why now: The vote matters because it shapes the political narrative on affordability heading into the midterms.
