Rising AI demand has accelerated hyperscale data center construction, intensifying concerns over electricity grid strain, water consumption, and local environmental impacts, which has prompted moratorium proposals in at least 11–15 states during the 2026 legislative sessions. New York’s legislature passed the first statewide bill in June 2026 imposing a one-year pause on permits for facilities exceeding 20 MW, with Governor Hochul considering executive action amid ongoing deliberations. Similar measures advanced in states including Maine (vetoed), Georgia, Oklahoma, and Maryland, though many face resistance from governors prioritizing economic growth and tax revenue. Traders see a 69.5% chance of at least one state enactment by year-end due to sustained local opposition and study requirements, tempered by potential delays or federal infrastructure priorities. Key near-term catalysts include remaining gubernatorial decisions and fall legislative activity.

This market will resolve to "Yes" if any U.S. state enacts legislation that establishes a statewide moratorium on new data centers by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No".
A qualifying moratorium must temporarily or indefinitely prohibit, suspend, or pause the approval, permitting, construction, connection to the electrical grid or other utility infrastructure, or operation of new data centers, or a defined category of new data centers, within that state.
Qualifying legislation includes any state bill that establishes such a data center moratorium.
Qualifying legislation must be enacted into law in accordance with the applicable state’s constitutional and legal procedures. This generally requires final passage by the relevant state legislature and approval by the governor, becoming law without signature, or taking effect through a veto override or other lawful mechanism. Legislation that does not become law under the applicable state process, including vetoed bills that do not take effect, does not qualify.
The primary resolution sources for this market will be official state legislative trackers, governor’s office announcements, secretary of state records, and other official information from the relevant state government; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.Rising AI demand has accelerated hyperscale data center construction, intensifying concerns over electricity grid strain, water consumption, and local environmental impacts, which has prompted moratorium proposals in at least 11–15 states during the 2026 legislative sessions.
