Texas Governor-elect Gina Hinojosa vows to pause new data center approvals until lawmakers pass protections
Gina Hinojosa, elected Texas governor on November 3, 2026, pledged during the campaign to issue a moratorium on all data center approvals until the Legislature passes laws to protect Texans. On November 5 she told CNN the state needs to stop what it is doing with data centers until those protections exist. The Data Center Coalition says its members will keep building in Texas while working with state leaders, and Trump wrote on November 6 that he will work with states that want to become rich from super intelligence, a term CNBC says he uses for data centers.
