(The Center Square) – A bill meant to prevent American communities from shouldering rising energy costs caused by data centers has died in the U.S. Senate.

The Ratepayer Protection Act, which nearly unanimously passed the House two weeks ago, failed to advance Wednesday in a 57-43 vote. Only four Democratic senators supported the bill.
