Tell the Mesa City Council NO to the NTT Global PH10 Data Center! · Mesa Valley Indivisible

On May 13, 2026, the Mesa Planning & Zoning Board quickly and quietly voted unanimously to recommend approval of the 2,257,581 sq ft Mesa Data Center Campus known as the NTT Global PH10. The next step is for the NTT Global PH10 Data Center to be introduced to the Mesa City Council on June 8th and we CANNOT let this be approved! Mesa is already home to a disproportionate number of data centers, and now we are facing another one. We need your help to stop it. Please join Mesa Valley Indivisible and other local activists at the Mesa City Council meeting on June 8, 2026! The meeting starts at 5:45pm but please get there as early as you can so we can make sure we fill up all the seats! All those who would like to speak should arrive 15 minutes early. **Whether or not you can attend, please do the following three things:** **1. Make your voice heard without having to speak by [submitting an electronic comment here!](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1oIwwXkM8HYG03a1vBuWp4Xku2yr19AJx-r0GroviurA/edit?tab=t.0)** Feel free to choose one of the concerns [listed here](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1llwS0FcrAfxBdC1DwOL0hayMQ9SWK1WJkHFZlxXYdQ4/edit?usp=sharing) if you do not want to write your own comment. **2. Email the Mesa City Council members by [clicking here](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1llwS0FcrAfxBdC1DwOL0hayMQ9SWK1WJkHFZlxXYdQ4/edit?usp=sharing).** Contact info, directions, and scripts/templates provided! **3. [Sign the petition](https://c.org/wR2JvYkfkn)** to tell Mesa City Councilmembers that Mesa residents do not want this 2.2+ million square foot data center! ## Key Concerns ### 🛑 Negative Financial Impact Massive Handouts, Tiny Returns: Similarly sized data centers receive over $100 million a year in tax subsidies. That is revenue stolen directly from our local community services and neighborhood improvements. Virtually No Job Creation: Despite taking up huge amounts of space, this massive facility will only create 40 to 60 permanent jobs paying $60,000 or less. Compared to advanced manufacturing or bioscience, data centers provide practically zero high-quality jobs per acre. We Pay Their Bills: The infrastructure improvements and utility upgrades required for this project will likely be passed on to everyday customers, not the multibillion-dollar company. Driving Up Local Costs: Developments like this artificially inflate land costs, making it harder for our local farmers, small businesses, and families looking for affordable housing to survive. ### 🏜️ Draining Our Desert A 2.2 million-square-foot facility requires an astronomical amount of energy and water to keep its servers cool. In our delicate desert environment, this level of resource consumption is completely unsustainable and directly threatens the capacity of our local utilities. ### 🔊 Ruining Our Neighborhoods This project threatens the safety and peace of our residential areas. The constant, 24/7 roar of massive cooling fans creates severe noise pollution, while the sprawling, windowless buildings will industrialize our local landscape and destroy our community's character.

Pratt's Pet Store Protest · Mobilize

## Join MVI to Protest Against Pratt's Pets & Puppy Mills! Mesa Valley Indivisible members visited Pratt's Pets after one of our protests and discovered dirty and inhumane conditions for the animals up for sale. We also found they are selling puppies from puppy mills located in Missouri ### Our recent walk-through of Pratt’s Pets revealed: - Puppies supplied by cruel “puppy mills”, mass breeding facilities in rural areas that keep breeding mothers (and fathers) in wire cages their entire lives, with little to no vet care or socialization; their paws never touch the ground - Small animals with dirty or no water - Numerous birds and animals crowded into small cages - Small animals being handled by unsupervised children - Rooster in 1’x1’ cage (wingspan typically 24-36”), no bedding, unable to scratch, peck, dust-bathe, or engage in other natural fowl behavior - Piglets advertised as “mini” or “potbelly”, (a common misrepresentation)… 90% of whom, per sanctuaries, are later abandoned due to growth to 100s of lbs - 4 young employees oblivious to visitors and animals’ well-being ### CONCLUSION: - Over 300 American communities (in addition to European ones) have passed ordinances banning retail pet sales. - Thousands of consumers have filed complaints against commercial pet stores for consumer fraud, including: - Selling sick animals - Failure to honor 90-day health guarantees” (aka “Puppy Lemon Law”), resulting in massive vet bills for consumers - Use of 3rd-party high-interest finance companies to lock consumers into financial contracts they can’t afford - Lying about the source (mills) and parentage of puppies - Shipping puppies younger than 8 weeks old, a violation of the federal Animal Welfare Act - Lying about U.S. Dept. of Agriculture inspection reports and violations by breeders (mills) 📅 **When**: Saturday, May 30, 2026 from 9:00 am -11:00 am 📍 **Where**: Pratt’s Pets at 856 S. Alma School Rd., Mesa 85210 🪧 **Signs**: We have PLENTY of signs you can use so do not worry about bringing one! 🅿️ **Parking**: Make sure not to park close to the store. Instead park closer to Food City (shares the same parking lot)

A #NativeAmerican girl was found dead and dismembered by an Arizona highway. Will her killer ever be found?

“Criminals and bad actors believe that they can get away with (crimes) on the Indian reservations.”
—attorney and activist Margo Hill-Ferguson

By Rob Picheta
Feb 13, 2026

"Carolyn Bender remembers her niece’s smile: broad and vibrant and heartbreakingly innocent, as though the whole world was in on her joke.
She remembers Emily drawing in the back seat of the car, and teasing her younger brother, and the sound of her soft-spoken voice. She recalls with a smile her love of being active in the outdoors: Emily was 'always on a swing, always in a pool.'

"That’s how #EmilyPike’s family remembers her. But for many in her tribe and across Arizona, she is known for something else: Being the victim of a savage crime.

"Last year Emily – a 14-year-old member of the #SanCarlosApache tribe – went missing from her group home in #MesaAZ, an eastern suburb of #PhoenixAZ. Her dismembered body was discovered by hikers nearly three weeks later and around 70 miles away, stuffed into trash bags left by the side of a rural highway.

"A multi-pronged investigation by federal and tribal authorities, with the support of the #FBI, has seemingly stalled. And a year later Emily’s family is still left waiting, desperately, for justice.
But her grisly killing underscores a broader problem: an epidemic of violence against #NativeAmericanWomen and girls who go missing or are killed at a staggeringly high rate.

"Native people were reported missing more than 10,200 times in 2024, according to the latest available FBI data: a rate of 28 missing person cases a day, or more than one an hour. Over 7,000 of those cases involved children, and more than 4,000 involved girls.

"This is a crisis hidden in plain sight, campaigners and tribal leaders say. In 2023, homicide was the fourth-leading cause of death for Native American men under the age of 45, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the sixth-leading cause for women of the same age. And in a landmark study conducted a decade ago, more than four in five Native American women said they had experienced violence in their lifetime. "

A Native American girl was found dead and dismembered by an Arizona highway. Will her killer ever be found?

Emily Pike slipped out a window of her Arizona group home a year ago; days later, the 14-year-old’s remains were found in a pair of trash bags by a rural highway. The ongoing mystery surrounding her death underscores the epidemic of violence against Indigenous women and girls in the US.

🚨 The #GhostFlights: #Deportation Flights #Disappearing Thousands Arrested by #ICE

By #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews, Feb. 6, 2026

"We've been tracking the Ghost Flights, disappearing migrants, moms, asylum seekers, and others arrested in Minneapolis, who are quickly grabbed and taken away at a private terminal at Minneapolis international airport.

"The charter airlines are making it harder to track them, but here's what we found: #GlobalX, #Eastern and #Omni based in #TulsaOK, have operated most of these, with Sun Country also operating some of the flights.

"These secretive flights take those arrested to deportation hubs in isolated areas, where they are sent to prison, deported to other countries, or constantly shifted on flights. These secretive hubs are in #DadeCollier in the Florida Everglades; Alexandria in central Louisiana; and Harlingen on the Texas border.

"Those arrested are boarded shackled in chains from their wrists to their feet, and often denied water and food, and abused. While these secretive flights disappear people, their families desperately search for them.

"The flights out of #MesaAZ in the #Phoenix area are deporting hundreds on each flight to #Venezuela. A recent flight out of Mesa deported those arrested to #Russia and #Iran. The past flights show the men were immediately given #Draft notices for military service when they arrived in Russia. Protesters and political #AsylumSeekers face worse.

"As for the chartered airlines, the main contract is held by #CSI in #AlbuquerqueNM, who contracts out the other airlines.

"Yesterday, a Ghost Flight landed in #Guantanamo and then #Haiti. These are #moms, #workers, asylum seekers, #LegalResidents, and most are whisked away and denied due process. More than 2,000 have been deported from #Minneapolis.

"Other major hubs for deportation flights are #ElPaso, #Miami, #SanAntonio, and #TacomaWA. The deportation flights are arriving in every region of the world, the Americas, Asia, and Africa." 😱
