Just saw an ad targeted to me on Instagram about how passing HB 1030 is such a great idea! I would make sure that data centers being built have to give benefits to the community, create jobs, yada yada. All I had to do was scroll down and sign a petition. I was about to do it, but I thought signing something on instagram with my personal information was sketchy, so I looked it up.
HB 1030 actually incentives data centers to come to Colorado through massive tax incentives. If it doesn't pass, Colorado will be a much less accessible place for big tech companies to come in. The way they frame it is so incredibly deceptive.
Stay aware of what you're seeing in ads and who benefits off of paying for them! Just a PSA because I almost fell for it and I wonder how many ads I saw before this that was scummy people targeting me to support bills I actually don't believe in
