Ensuring America's Next Era of Growth Happens on Our Terms
The American Infrastructure Alliance advocates for responsible development of core infrastructure that strengthens our economy, creates good jobs, and puts communities first.
About the Alliance
Data centers are the infrastructure of this era of American growth – just as highways, railroads, and the electric grid were for generations before. They provide access to the internet, artificial intelligence, and the digital economy that hundreds of millions of Americans rely on every day.
The American Infrastructure Alliance is dedicated to smart, accountable growth. We believe this development can bring real, lasting benefits to states and communities — but only if they’re built responsibly.
Our Principles
Responsible Growth, Not Runaway Growth
We support capturing the investment and jobs data centers bring, paired with enforceable protections for ratepayers, water resources, and communities. Growth should strengthen local businesses, generate revenue for schools and infrastructure, and create lasting jobs — not take shortcuts that leave communities behind.
Communities Come First
Large energy users should pay their own way. Smart policy makes sure data center developers fund the power and water infrastructure their projects require, so residents aren't left holding the bill.
A Competitive Advantage, With Accountability
Data centers help keep America at the cutting edge of important technologies, including artificial intelligence, weather forecasting, healthcare tools, disaster response, and precision farm management – strengthening our economy. That leadership should come with transparency and oversight, so growth stays sustainable.
Give, Not Take
Growth should benefit communities. That means real agreements on noise, lighting, construction, and distance from homes and tangible, lasting community benefits that ensure data centers’ neighbors share their success.
