Very interesting report on the mounting revenue consequences to states from data centers.

Good Jobs First @GoodJobsFirst

NEW: At least 10 states lose over $100 million per year in tax revenue to data centers. The loss of revenue is surely worse than we can yet document — of the 32 states with data center tax incentives, 12 fail to disclose even *aggregate* revenue losses. 👇🏾 https://t.co/LpeA2ycex2 https://t.co/Q3SOhZyr8P

This is curious. IRS removed guidance from its website that directs state governments on their data security responsibilities when handling federal tax information, raising questions about the federal agency’s objectives. See our story in @tax https://t.co/L8NVF7xKMf
