A newly elected member of Congress has promised to “resist any attempt” to move U.S. Space Command headquarters from Colorado Springs to Huntsville following former president Donald J. Trump’s election.
“Obviously, I believe that if it’s down to military value, Colorado is the place for it to be,” said U.S. Rep.-electfrom Colorado Springs, its interim location, to Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville, near the end of his first term in 2021.Nov. 10, 2024, 10:48 a.m. But Crank contends that keeping the Command in Colorado Springs is the right thing, arguing that moving it anywhere else would be a “political” decision.
“With Donald Trump, you never know,” he said. “He changes his positions and his stance on issues by the day, and sometimes by the hour. If he wants to build out the Space Force and Space Command and have it meet the national security moment and our threats, then he will keep it here.” If you purchase a product or register for an account through a link on our site, we may receive compensation.and agree that your clicks, interactions, and personal information may be collected, recorded, and/or stored by us and social media and other third-party partners in accordance with our
