The Secretary of the Air Force could soon be under a congressional mandate to report all money spent or obligated on U.S. Space Command’s startup headquarters in Colorado under a requirement advanced by U.S. SenKatieBritt in a Senate budget review today.
Jun. 22, 2023, 11:41 a.m.
“It’s far past time for the Pentagon to announce a final basing decision on the permanent location for Space Command Headquarters,” Britt said in a statement. “Time and time again, objective analysis has confirmed that Redstone Arsenal is the best location for America’s national security interests. With this report language, we can help ensure that politics is kept out of this process.”
But Alabama lawmakers who met with Dickinson after that report say the general “confirmed” to them thatRedstone ranked above Colorado Springs in a required Pentagon rating process that weighed bases across the country, but Colorado reportedly remains the favorite of some military leaders. A Defense Department inspector general’s office review said the selection process pointing to Redstone was reasonable, but former President Trump added to the base debate by saying he personally chose Alabama.
