SUMMARY:"You Passed a Moratorium; Now What?!" Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Hundreds of communities across the US have passed or are considering data center moratoriums—temporary pauses on facility construction\, approvals\, or operation—but once that pause is in place\, what happens next? \nThis 90-minute workshop explores the policy tools and organizing strategies to build lasting protections against the data center buildout\, so moratoriums build momentum rather than cementing the status quo. We will feature case studies from local organizers from different moratorium scenarios\, review policy approaches for varying political environments\, highlight strategies to counter industry retaliation\, and hold breakout discussions for participants to workshop their specific challenges and questions. \nThe workshop is co-hosted by the Data Center Working Group\, AI Now Institute\, Anthropocene Alliance\, the Better Data Center Project\, Fair Shake Environmental Legal Services\, FreePress\, Halt the Harm\, Kairos Fellows\, Local Progress\, MediaJustice\, North Carolina Environmental Justice Network\, and TechTonic Justice. \nWednesday\, Aug 19 • 10-11:30 am PT / 1-2:30 pm ET.  \nRegister here.

SUMMARY:Defending Our Elections: Planning for Public Witness
DESCRIPTION:Following the passage of new anti-immigrant laws\, an escalation by ICE in the Pisgah National Forest and new threats to the sanctity of this fall’s election\, all enabled by white Christian nationalists\, join clergy across the state to learn how to participate in powerful public Christian public witness that centers the Matthew 25 values of “love your neighbor as yourself” and protects the right to select our leaders through elections. \nThe Republican-controlled State Board of Elections has approved a string of party-line rule changes ahead of the midterms\, letting county boards reject reasonable-impediment voter-ID ballots by a simple majority\, toss absentee ballots over envelope “irregularities\,” and remove people from polling places more easily. And the board voted 3–2 to use DHS’s SAVE immigration database to flag and remove suspected noncitizens from the rolls — a system experts warn wrongly flags eligible citizens. We must take action to protect the integrity of our elections\, in part because conservative Christians in our state have advanced a “voter fraud”\, “election integrity” narrative for years\, which has enabled today’s threats to the democratic process. \nThursday\, August 27th • 2PM. \nRegister here.
