Summary
The bill adds a new section to the Right‑to‑Know Law that bars any state agency from signing contracts that require confidentiality about the construction, development, or location of a data center. Any such agreement entered into after the law takes effect is void and cannot be enforced. The change is intended to make data‑center projects more transparent to the public.
