Abigail Spanberger is dodging questions again — this time on the controversial Valley Link transmission line project that could cut 115 miles through Virginia's heartland to power more data centers.
In this video, we break down her latest non-answers following the July 4 naturalization ceremony at Monticello and what it really means for rural Virginia communities, family electric bills, water resources, and farmland. From clear-cut paths through central Virginia to corporate welfare for Big Tech, Uriah Kiser exposes the pattern of evasion on issues affecting everyday Virginians.
Virginia already leads the nation with over 600 data centers, many more in the pipeline. These facilities consume massive amounts of water and electricity, driving up costs for residents under the current laws that let ratepayers foot the bill for grid connections. Spanberger points to a new data center consumption tax expected to raise $600 million annually, yet billions in tax breaks for companies like Amazon, Google, and Microsoft remain.
We discuss the limits of "local control" when the State Corporation Commission holds the real power, and why Virginians deserve straight answers on infrastructure that impacts historic resources, rural landscapes, and household budgets.
If you're concerned about rising energy costs, data center proliferation, and government accountability in Virginia, this is must-watch analysis.
