Understanding how AI and HPCs can help our bulk-power system run on full power will be critical to ensuring affordable rates for the long term. I'm grateful to Congressman Mullin for partnering with me on this bipartisan solution, and I'll keep pushing to get it to the President's desk.” CLICK HERE to learn more about the Affordable Innovation for the Grid Act. ### | 1 | 2026-09-16T09:43:13Z | 2026-09-16T09:44:22Z |
