Greg Abbott is the 48th governor of Texas, in office since 2015. He previously served as Texas attorney general from 2002 to 2015 and as a justice on the Texas Supreme Court from 1996 to 2001. A member of the Republican Party, he is the longest-serving incumbent governor in the United States as of 2025. In recent policy actions tied to the AI industry, Abbott has directed state regulators to audit new data center projects before they can connect to Texas's power grid, citing concerns over grid capacity, electricity prices, and community impact.

Why this page exists, and how to correct or remove it

This profile is assembled automatically because Greg Abbott appears in coverage we index or holds a role listed publicly by their organisation.
