Washington, D.C.,
July 10, 2026
Refusing to let community concerns go unanswered, U.S. Representative Debbie Dingell (D-MI-06) is continuing to press for answers from the University of Michigan over the proposed Ypsilanti Township data center project. Congresswoman Dingell sent a letter on June 24 asking for responses to questions that local resident have had over escalating fears regarding infrastructure and quality of life—questions they have not been able to get answers to. As promised, Congresswoman Dingell is releasing the responses as soon as she received it, which was within the past hour today. Congresswoman Dingell continues to press for an in-person town hall between project leaders and the township due to lingering unanswered questions and unaddressed feelings. U.S. Representative Debbie Dingell (D-MI-06) released responses from the University of Michigan and Los Alamos National Laboratory following her June 24 inquiry urging them to respond to Ypsilanti Township community concerns regarding the proposed data center project. Last month’s inquiry to University of Michigan President Domenico Grasso and Los Alamos National Laboratory Director Dr. Thom Mason followed growing concerns from community members that the project will adversely impact their local infrastructure and quality of life. This is the third letter Congresswoman Dingell has sent with the goal of gaining greater clarity for Michiganders asking similar questions about the project.
