Script offered by the Sierra Club:

Hi, my name is ____ and I’m calling about data centers. I am asking
Representative/ Senator [Name ] to support a statewide moratorium on new hyper scale data centers until Michigan has stronger protections in place.  
These facilities could significantly increase electricity demand, strain water resources, raise costs for utility customers, and impact local communities.
I’m also asking Representative / Senator [Name] to support and advance legislation that ensures that data centers pay their fair share and protect Michigan’s residents and natural resources.

Thank you
