Nearly 200 people showed up to El Paso City Hall to demand their council kill a sweetheart tax deal with Meta.
The council voted 5-3 to keep the agreement, which gives Meta an 80% break on city taxes for 25 years on a $10 billion data center being built in Northeast El Paso.
Opponents say it will drain the city’s water supply and pollute its air. The crowd chanted “vote them out” on the way out the door.
