Today it was decided that Meta does not have to provide more answers about their Hyperion project. I will have more to say on that soon. But I want to begin by thanking all of you who showed up today to testify and to assure you: I hear you loud and clear. #datacenters #meta

Tomorrow, Wednesday, Aug 12th, 9am: The Public Service Commission will decide; How much does Meta need to share with the general public? This meeting is open to the public or available on livestream: 📍602 N 5th St, Baton Rouge (Galvez building, 1st floor, Natchez room 💻 tinyurl.com/lpscyoutube

Tomorrow! The @LAPSC Business and Executive Session will take place Baton Rouge It is open to the public or available live on Youtube. We will be taking up the subpoena for Meta to produce relevant documents to the Commission. Preview the agenda at www.lpsc.louisiana.gov

All while their bills continue to climb. That is why the Commission has ordered a review of Magnolia Water Utility Operating Co.’s billing, customer service and acquisition practices. thecurrentla.com/2026/as-priv... #lagov #louisiana #cleanwater

Public service isn't about voting with the crowd—it's about voting your conscience. I believe that we deserve more transparency, certainty, and protections before moving forward with the largest energy project in our state's history. thelensnola.org/2026/07/17/m... #lagov #louisiana #datacenters

“Louisiana has recruited some of the world’s largest technology companies without establishing statewide rules for how their data centers should be valued for property taxes.” - @thecentersquare.bsky.social #datacenters #meta #hyperion #lagov

If your utility service is interrupted, be sure to report the outage directly to your utility company. Save these LPSC District 3 contact numbers now—you'll be glad you have them when you need them most. Stay safe, Louisiana! #Bertha #lagov #Louisiana

The best part of my job is representing #Louisiana everywhere I go! Thank you American Clean Power for inviting me to talk affordability, federal and state relations, and #energy transmission.

Today is the day!  District 1 Public Service Commission candidates are heading for a runoff. These folks will have a lot of power over your pocketbook. The LPSC regulates utility rates, approves infrastructure projects, and determines what costs are passed on to customers.

The Gov. issued an Executive Order today on data centers. The problems he got right: Resources and ratepayers should be protected. Tech companies should pay their fair share. The solutions? Not so much. I have some better ones: mailchi.mp/davantelewis... #lagov #datacenters #louisiana

How might Louisiana data centers impact your bill? It depends on what type of deal is allowed between our utilities & tech companies These decisions will impact us for decades, & we only have one ☝️ chance to get it right. #datacenters #louisiana #lagov

Tomorrow! The @LAPSC Business and Executive Session will take place Baton Rouge

Just what we all needed. 🙄 This is why my efforts will remain focused on affordability in 2026. Source: eta-publications.lbl.gov/sites/defaul...

Much of the Louisiana #Meta project has been developed behind closed doors. Lucky, @rileyraygriffin.bsky.social of @bloomberg.com took a deep dive into how we got here… and ultimately reveals, we don’t know much about where we will end up. www.bloomberg.com/features/202...

Just seems like the math could math better. 🤔 #datacenters #energy #sustainability #ai #labor

Calling NW Louisiana! Tomorrow you can do something small to make a BIG impact on your bills: VOTE! The Public Service Commissioner on your ballot will regulate utility rates, approve energy projects (including the data centers) & determine what costs are passed on to you. #LAGov #GeauxVote

Thank you to NARUC for appointing me as Co-Vice Chair of the Consumers & the Public Interest committee  This Committee plays an important role in advancing policies that reflect the needs of consumers and the public, while supporting informed, thoughtful regulatory decisions.

Utilities need expensive upgrades to handle the energy demands of data centers. So far, 33 states have initiated some form of rulemaking to protect their grids and pocketbooks. We do not want to be left behind! Today, we are talking about it!

North Louisiana: Tune into KTVE tonight to hear from your LPSC candidates!

Louisiana wants more data centers ➡️Data centers require a lot of energy ➡️The LA Public Service Commission must be prepared to meet this challenge wisely. That is why we are holding a Technical Confernce this Thursday. This event is open to the public! Come make your voice heard.

It has been an honor to serve as an original plaintiff in the #SCOTUS case defending a #FairMap for #Louisiana. But today’s #redistricting ruling leaves me exhausted. Here is my full statement on #gerrymandering and #BlackVotingRights #lalege #lagov #2026Midterms

Thank you to the Rotary Club of Baton Rouge! We talked data centers & Louisiana’s energy future. Rotarians came with open-minded curiosity and great questions about how we invite opportunity into our state while keeping our, already high, utility bills low. #Rotary #batonrouge #lagov #datacenters

With two of my fellow commissioner terming out this year, we have an opportunity to elect candidates who are ready to shake up our utility landscape. What do I think is possible? Less profits for utilities, more predictability and savings for rate payers. #geauxvote #lagov

~70% of our electricity comes from gas. Meaning, when global gas prices rise, your bill can too. Be prepared: 💲Enroll in levelized billing 💲Seal doors & windows to save energy 💲Search “LIHEAP Louisiana” for bill assistance

Entergy Louisiana recently made a big announcement…. …. But didn’t tell the whole story. Let’s talk about it.

There’s no pokemon in here . . . just the technology to monitor the real-time conditions of our grid! ⚡️ I joined the @entergy.com transmission and Heimdall Power leadership teams for the installation of these devices to improve the resilience of our infrastructure!

#NewOrleans is unique: the City Council regulates utility rates & service quality. Since that overlaps with my Commission district, we coordinate closely. Last week, I shared updates with their Climate Committee. If you’re having utility issues, your Councilmembers & I are here to help!
