"The Senate has decided against advancing the #RatepayerProtectionAct, a bipartisan bill designed to shield everyday Americans from rapidly rising electricity costs driven by data centers.
On September 30, the bill fell short 57-43
It had cleared the House of Representatives just 2 weeks earlier"

The Senate stalled the Ratepayer Protection Act with 57 votes to open debate, short of the 60 needed. The data-center electricity-cost bill had passed the House 417–3, but its proposed protections would remain optional for states and utilities.

AI · House votes 417-3 to make AI data centers pay grid costs
The Ratepayer Protection Act passed 417-3, telling states to make big AI data centers pay their own grid-upgrade costs, not everyday households.
(Reuters) - The U.S. House of Representatives is expected to vote as soon as Wednesday on bipartisan legislation that seeks to rein in electricity bill increases tied to the expansion of data centers that support artificial intelligence.
