With Data Centers, PA Can Reinvent Itself Again
No state built America more than Pennsylvania.
On the heels of our 250th year of independence, most think of how Pennsylvanians built the nation ideologically. From the Declaration of Independence to the Gettysburg Address, Pennsylvania has been a central place for articulating the idea of America. But let’s not forget how the Commonwealth has built and continues to build the nation’s industry and infrastructure.
Coal from the Appalachians powered the country through the Industrial Revolution, and Pittsburgh's steel framed the skylines of every major city across the country. While many of the factories and furnaces that fueled Pennsylvania’s rise as an industrial powerhouse have shuttered, communities across the Commonwealth have a chance to revitalize the region through investments in energy and AI infrastructure – but only if local residents have a seat at the table.
