ITI Applauds White House Ratepayer Protection Pledge
WASHINGTON – Today, global tech trade association ITI applauded President Trump’s Ratepayer Protection Pledge, which ITI member companies, including Google, Microsoft, Meta, Amazon, and OpenAI, signed to commit to ensuring that the financial burden of America’s AI infrastructure boom does not fall on American households and families. The Pledge also includes commitments to invest in local job creation and workforce development and contribute to electric and community resilience. ITI’s President and CEO Jason Oxman joined the event to sign the landmark agreement.
“ITI strongly supports President Trump’s leadership in advancing energy policy that fuels innovation, protects American families and businesses, and grows the nation’s economy. President Trump’s vision demonstrates how effective collaboration between government and industry can deliver real results for Americans,” said Jason Oxman, President and CEO of ITI. “The Ratepayer Protection Pledge reflects a thoughtful and responsible approach to balancing U.S. leadership in technology with the fundamental imperative of affordable energy access for all Americans. By bringing together leaders in the tech community and the administration, this initiative reinforces a shared commitment and expands on industry’s ongoing efforts to modernize and strengthen the energy grid, protect ratepayers, create jobs, and build the infrastructure America needs to compete and win in the 21st century. ITI looks forward to continuing constructive engagement as these principles are put into action.”
