Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico blasted Republican Senate candidate Ken Paxton on data centers in a wide-ranging interview with CBS News Texas.

"Ken Paxton has taken nearly half a million linked to the data center industry, and it's why he ignored residents in Hood County when they asked for his help as Attorney General to pause data center construction in their community. He just ghosted them," said Talarico.
