El Paso residents, led by Joshua Dagda, are fighting against the construction of data centers in their city. Dagda has filed a petition for a writ of mandamus against City Clerk Laura D. Prine, seeking to halt municipal approvals for the data centers.
Concerns Over Transparency and Environmental Impact
The controversy has led to communities trying to recall elected officials, with Dagda’s group collecting signatures for the recall process. Demonstrators have voiced outrage over the lack of transparency and the failure of local leadership to adequately evaluate the long-term effects on resources and the environment.
