Trump's Re-Election Could Reignite Battle Over Space Command Headquarters | Biden reversed a controversial decision to relocate the U.S. Space Command to Alabama, but Trump is expected to follow through with his original plan.


Biden reversed a controversial decision to relocate the U.S. Space Command to Alabama, but Trump is expected to follow through with his original plan.

President-elect Donald Trump is expected to move the Space Command headquarters to Huntsville, Alabama, a decision he had made during his first term that was later reversed by President Joe Biden out of concern for the state’s anti-abortion law. Biden’s decision sparked a months-long feud over the rightful place for the U.S. Space Command, with Alabama lawmakers resorting to restricting the Air Force’s budget to put pressure on the administration. In June 2023, Mike Rogers, chairman of the House Armed Services Committee and an Alabama rep, released a bill that would not only restrict spending on the construction of the Space Command’s current facilities in Colorado but also limit funds for the Air Force.
