> Not sure what environmental impacts you expect to see the policy to have achieved in three years

I’m asking for evidence of any impact. Was something built or not built? Was the design modified? Did it become more efficient, even if just on paper?

If the law literally did nothing we can measure for three years, I’m not sure it’s worth the political capital to keep alive.

I'm not sure you can draw a conclusion like that, especially given that roughly half that time has been under the Trump administration, which really doesn't care about regulations on what it does.

If the policy is about what to do and not to do when building a new datacenter, I could easily believe that the government...didn't actually build any new datacenters during the three years it was in effect, so it hasn't had a chance to have any impact.
