Thanks to the organizing efforts of LCV affiliate Illinois Environmental Council (IEC) and Illinois Clean Jobs Coalition partners, Illinois has been at the forefront of state-level climate action that has been a model for other states. In 2026, IEC aims to pass legislation addressing data centers’ extensive energy and water use, including a requirement to “Bring Your Own New Clean Capacity and Energy” (BYONCCE). As the convener of Illinois’ environmental movement, IEC is uniquely situated to bring together the normally siloed clean energy, water, and agriculture stakeholders who will need to speak with one voice to counter deep-pocketed industry influence.
