I am writing to congratulate you on your decision to step down from the Senate race. As you move toward this next chapter, you are uniquely positioned to act with total independence and prioritize the immediate concerns of Maine’s residents. I urge you to use this freedom to rescind your veto on the data center moratorium. The people of Maine have expressed clear concerns regarding the massive energy demands and environmental strain these facilities place on our local infrastructure. By pausing this development, you ensure that our state’s resources are managed sustainably rather than sacrificed for short-term corporate gains. Without the pressure of a looming election, you can truly listen to the voices of your constituents who value our land and power grid stability. Now that you are no longer focused on the campaign trail, you have nothing to lose by siding with the citizens who elected you. It is time to prioritize the long-term health of our environment over rapid industrial expansion. Please rescind the veto and honor the will of the people.
