Stephanie Gans, Executive Director, Clean Water for North Carolina
Clean Water for North Carolina is against these tax amendments because data centers and other dirty development would likely accelerate, as local governments approve projects over the objections of residents, in a quest to replace the lost tax revenue. Local governments would also be forced to raise the cost of living through increased sales taxes, fines, and fees. Duke Energy and Chemours are two corporations that would benefit hugely from these amendments, all while electricity and water bills skyrocket due to their business practices. Protect our water, protect your wallet, vote against tax cuts for corporations like Duke Energy & Chemours.
