🚨DAVID IBSEN (@dlibsen): "President Trump last year, he issued an executive order banning [de-banking], [...] what we'd like to see happen now is that executive order become law so that the next president, the next administration, can't kind of go back to how it was before."

New York just imposed America's first statewide moratorium on hyperscale data centers – infrastructure that powers AI and the digital economy.
While AI emerges as a defining innovation, New York is choosing to shut it down.
@dlibsen in @NRO on why that's the wrong path:

America has not built a large-scale oil refinery in nearly 50 years – largely because of our outdated permitting laws.
@NTU's Thomas Aiello writes in @RCPolitics why passing permitting reform will help break that streak and deliver affordable energy for every American:
America’s permitting system has become a maze of duplicative reviews, endless studies, procedural hurdles, and bureaucratic delays that keep worthwhile projects tied up for years without meaningfully improving environmental outcomes.
But Congress has the chance to deliver needed reforms for taxpayers.

🚨The U.S. House has passed the FIRM Act as part of the Main Street Capital Access Act. This is a positive step in ensuring fair access to banking for all Americans by halting federal regulators from engaging in politically motivated debanking.

📈South Carolina is the fastest growing state in the nation – built on free market principles, limited government & policies that allow its communities to thrive.
The Guarantee Banking Act creates a costly state patchwork which threatens to undermine progress. @dlibsen and @NTU’s Jess Ward in @fitsnews:
"A patchwork of conflicting state laws would burden businesses and ultimately be passed onto consumers. This goes against South Carolina’s — and the nation’s — free market principles."
