McIver has taken a concrete same-term legislative step by introducing the AI Data Center Site Selection Transparency Act of 2026, which targets environmental transparency and accountability. However, the evidence does not show enacted legislation, secured federal funding, expanded protections, or completed polluter accountability outcomes. Under the rule for serious attempts that fail to deliver the promised outcome, this is not delivered but merits an effort badge.
