Data Center Protest Turns Violent | Santa Fe News
Description
Tensions exploded at a county commissioners meeting as protesters clashed over the controversial Project Jupiter data center, culminating in a woman being knocked to the ground twice—caught on video and sparking national outrage. U.S. Rep. Melanie Stansbury and local officials condemned the use of force, while Councilor Johana Bencomo and Rep. Angelica Rubio linked the incident to a broader pattern of silencing public dissent since the project’s announcement. A statewide moratorium is now being pushed for January’s legislative session. Meanwhile, some residents blamed protesters for disrupting the meeting, while opponents argue new rules are stifling their right to speak. Three people were arrested, and county officials are investigating the incident.
