America aimed higher once.
We can do it again.
The country that builds the most compute, the fastest, will set the rules for the next century of economic, military, and technological power. Freedom 7 exists to make sure that country is America — and that we build the right way.
Freedom 7 brings together leaders, experts, and communities to ensure the United States leads the world in the technologies and infrastructure that define the 21st century.

- Innovation Leadership
- Economic Opportunity

Freedom 7 Intro Video
Beijing is betting that America is in decline. They believe they have the infrastructure and the will to overtake us in this race. China has built a five-year national data center plan around a single goal: winning.
Meanwhile, here at home, the buildout we need is stalling. In the first quarter of 2026 alone, opponents blocked or delayed at least 75 U.S. data center projects worth roughly $130 billion, matching the total for all of the previous year in just three months.
Every delay we face is a head start we hand to our competitors. America is familiar with losing odds. We're also familiar with making a comeback. We've come together to win those races and we can do it again, if we choose to build.

- Race that defines the century
Data centers are not warehouses. They are the foundries of American dominance in the 21st century.
Every time someone searches for directions, streams a show, gets a fraud alert, or checks the forecast — that's a data center. This technology isn't going away; it's only going to grow more proficient.
AI is already creating previously unimaginable advances in our society. It's outperforming radiologists at detecting early-stage cancers, designing novel antibiotics at a pace humans alone can't match, and giving patients answers on rare diseases that once took years to diagnose.
The real question isn't whether we need data centers. It's whether they get built here, in the US, or in authoritarian countries.
Why Freedom 7: The Freedom 7 Coalition exists to sustain and advance America's progress in the AI race so that, when history looks back, America is once again the country who aimed higher, committed harder, and won.

“America aims higher again”
AI is the single greatest equalizer of our time. For generations, the best teachers, the best doctors, and the best opportunities have been rationed by zip code, income, and luck. AI changes that. It doesn't ask where you're from, what you earn, or who your parents were. It just helps.
“The future isn't waiting. Neither can we.
Freedom 7 Coalition
When history looks back, let it say America aimed higher again.
Industry leaders across the public and private sectors are coming together to win the defining race of our era, responsibly. Join them.
