No AI Data Centers on Federal Lands Act

This bill would ban building or running artificial intelligence data centers, and the infrastructure built to serve them, on land owned or managed by the federal government, including Department of Defense land. Federal agencies that operate, lease, or are building such data centers would have 30 days after the law takes effect to stop operations or construction and begin removing them, or order their lessees to do so. Removal would have to follow federal environmental cleanup law, including any required site restoration. The ban would not apply to land held in trust for Indian Tribes or their members.
