Tell Congress: Block the Pentagon’s warfare-powering AI data centers TAKE ACTION We’re sounding the alarm: Unchecked AI has no place in weapons and war, and parasitic data centers have no place in our communities. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has pledged to create an “AI-first” fighting force, supercharging an already AI-powered war machine. To do it, the Army and Air Force have announced plans to build data centers spanning thousands of acres of military property in Texas, North Carolina, Utah, California, Arizona, and Georgia — and more could follow. It’s all to advance the usage of AI in warfare; autonomous weapons systems, algorithms making life-or-death decisions, robots with the power to launch nuclear weapons. 7-in-10 Americans oppose data centers being built in their communities, and it’s not hard to see why: they jack up local electricity costs, waste millions of gallons of freshwater each day, and cause air, light, and noise pollution. According to El Paso Matters, the three-gigawatt data center complex planned near Fort Bliss “would consume more electricity than all of El Paso Electric’s 460,000 customers combined.” That’s why Wall Street firms and private equity companies like the Carlyle Group and BlackRock are trying to avoid public scrutiny by turning to the Pentagon, which is currently negotiating “exclusive” 50-year term leases of its property for the data centers. To get lawmakers to pay attention and prevent more data centers from destroying land, water, and air to power AI warfare, we need as many people as possible speaking out today. Sign and send your message to your Representative and Senators demanding that they block the Pentagon from building taxpayer-subsidized data centers.
