Biggs Surprises on Data Center Tax

In a surprise twist during a GOP gubernatorial debate, Congressman Andy Biggs endorsed Governor Katie Hobbs’s move to pause new tax breaks for data centers—calling it a smart, bipartisan policy he’d support. The move, part of Hobbs’s budget negotiations, marked a rare alignment with the governor, contrasting Biggs’s usual criticism. Other candidates added drama: one demanded data centers fund desalination plants or stay away, while others tackled tax elimination, election integrity, and even flashed a “smashed hand” from border wall work. Despite the theatrics, Biggs remains in the lead—suggesting the debate’s fireworks won’t shake up the race. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
