- NRSC sent a private memo to top AI companies warning that toxic public views of U.S. data centers are killing Republicans' chances of holding a vital Ohio Senate seat.
- The memo, obtained by Axios, says Democrats have made data centers a central campaign issue, framing GOP-aligned AI infrastructure expansion as an emerging electoral liability.
Why it matters: The NRSC is telling AI companies in writing that data center backlash is already hurting the party's standing in Ohio, framing the industry's buildout as an election vulnerability rather than an economic win — a rare direct warning from a party committee to a fast-growing industry sector.
