(5/6) Thank you to everyone in our community who has shared their stories and perspectives with me personally on this issue. As we continue to monitor developments, know we are in this together, and I encourage you to keep speaking up and speaking out.

(4/6) I'm proud to support several bills in the Pennsylvania Senate—including Senate Bill 1359 which will enact a statewide moratorium on hyperscale data center development—that puts our communities at the forefront of this discussion, not the interests of the ultra-wealthy and big tech CEOs.

Senator Amanda M. Cappelletti @pasenatorcappelletti.com · 13/08/2026

(3/6) And at this point, it's clear that data center developers are willing to use every tool at their disposal to bully communities into bending, but we know we won't break. We won't let millionaires build their wealth by taking advantage of taxpayers and putting future generations at risk.

Senator Amanda M. Cappelletti @pasenatorcappelletti.com · 13/08/2026

(2/6) Until we have consistent and comprehensive guardrails in place to regulate hyperscale data center development, building massive data centers in Pennsylvania shouldn't even be a conversation.

Senator Amanda M. Cappelletti @pasenatorcappelletti.com · 13/08/2026

(1/6) The recent developments in Upper Merion surrounding proposed data center plans are deeply frustrating. Our community is making their voices heard, and our position is clear: we do not want hyperscale data centers in our backyards.

Republicans in Washington think ICE belongs in PA. They are sorely mistaken. I'm proud to stand united with my colleagues and our advocacy partners to send a clear message back: #ICEOut of PA.

Until consistent and comprehensive guardrails exist to regulate hyperscale data center development, I stand with my community in opposing data center development in our neighborhoods. Read my full statement below.

Senator Amanda Cappelletti Responds to Data Center Proposals in District 17. May 22, 2026 (page 1): "My team and I have heard from many of our neighbors across District 17 who have expressed deep concerns about proposed hyperscale data centers in and around our area. This includes eight proposed centers in Upper Merion Township, which would span more than four million square feet of land. Think about that, a bigger footprint than the Philadelphia airport.

Those proposals are up for public consideration at the Upper Merion Planning Commission’s meeting on May 27 at 7 p.m.

Whether you’re concerned about data centers’ impact on our collective quality of life, our public health, our environment, or our wallets as utility ratepayers, we can all agree: our communities are not fodder for ultra-wealthy developers’ hasty and unregulated attempts to turn a profit at our expense."

Senator Amanda Cappelletti Responds to Data Center Proposals in District 17. May 22, 2026 (page 2): "To ensure the safety and wellbeing of every Pennsylvanian is upheld, our state legislature must act. Now is the time to implement consistent and comprehensive guardrails to regulate hyperscale data center development, ensure transparency and collaboration with the community throughout potential development, and protect our most basic rights to needs like clean air and water. Until the concept of regulating data centers becomes our reality, I stand with my community in opposing data center development in our neighborhoods."

Instead of addressing these problems head-on, Senate Republicans are using up our time in Harrisburg to create political theater with SB 1293 because they feel like it.

100

Senator Amanda M. Cappelletti @pasenatorcappelletti.com · 22/04/2026

To be clear: - 12,000 PA'ns that we know of go unhoused on any given day. - 1 in 8 PA'ns experience food insecurity. - Nearly 25% of PA'ns can't cover their energy bills. - Nearly 85,000 PA'ns have dropped health care coverage through Pennie due to rising costs. That number continues to grow.

This graphic is Senator Cappelletti's full statement on the SB1293 vote. The quote is:

"Our time on the Senate floor is valuable. Instead of ensuring our time is used wisely—moving bills that would actually make Pennsylvania more affordable, safe, and healthy—Senate Republicans are creating political theatre over their recycled bill that seeks to exclude transgender youth from sports."

"It’s clear my Republican colleagues rather use their time and power to police young peoples’ bodies instead of addressing pressing crises like the rising costs of food and utilities, dwindling housing options, and stagnant, unlivable wages.

Today, I voted NO on Senate Bill 1293. I will continue to vote against any other deluded bills Senate Republicans try to put forth that harm our communities, and take our valuable time on the Senate floor away from creating real progress for Pennsylvanians."

Republican Leadership has no choice but to put aside their pride & work across the aisle in the Senate – as Dem. leadership has been trying to do since day one – to garner the votes for a sustainable budget that both parties can agree to. I encourage you to join me and call on them to do just that:

This intentional and prolonged stalemate is not productive for anyone. In fact, it is actively hurting our communities. It’s time to stop the political theatre and finish this job in the reality we govern in, where both sides need to be willing to make compromises.

Senator Amanda M. Cappelletti @pasenatorcappelletti.com · 09/10/2025

Now, 100 days past our deadline, Senate Republican leadership said on the record they don’t have the votes to pass a bill that makes any progress for PA'ns – instead, they only have the votes to pass the EXACT same budget we passed last year.

Senator Amanda M. Cappelletti @pasenatorcappelletti.com · 09/10/2025

Gov. Shapiro gave his budget address in February. Senate Dems shared wide support for that budget, & House Dems were on board too. Democratic leadership has been vocal about their willingness to collaborate across the aisle on a legitimate budget.

Senator Amanda M. Cappelletti @pasenatorcappelletti.com · 09/10/2025

This means that instead of using our time to pass a legitimate state budget that prioritizes the needs of PA'ns, Senate Republicans have chosen to waste time on a complicated legislative maneuver to solve a problem of their own making.

Senator Amanda M. Cappelletti @pasenatorcappelletti.com · 09/10/2025
