New York Democrats are systematically destroying the state they govern.
As if New York’s economic troubles weren’t already severe, the state has now become the first in the nation to impose a statewide moratorium on new AI data centers—effectively slamming the brakes on one of the world’s fastest-growing industries. Artificial intelligence is rapidly becoming a defining technology for economic growth, scientific innovation, and national competitiveness. Countries and states that attract AI infrastructure are positioning themselves to lead the next technological era, while those that drive it away risk falling behind. At a time when the global race for AI leadership is accelerating, New York is sending a message that investment, innovation, and the jobs of the future are no longer welcome.
