(The Center Square) – Data centers can help lower taxes and generate revenue for local governments, according to speakers at a National Taxpayers Union discussion Tuesday.

The discussion focused on two reports released in May saying data centers benefit taxpayers through property tax revenue, business investment and tax policies that encourage development. National Taxpayers Union President Pete Sepp joined National Taxpayers Union Foundation Senior Policy Manager Debbie Jennings and Policy Manager Matthew Putnam to discuss the findings.
