Bill > HRes37

This resolution recognizes the 4th anniversary of the Trump administration's announcement of Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville, Alabama, as the preferred location for United States Space Command Headquarters. The document details a comprehensive selection process called the Strategic Basing Action, which began in 2019 after President Trump directed the reestablishment of Space Command as a unified combatant command. Through a three-phase process involving 66 candidate locations, the Air Force Basing Office evaluated potential sites using four key factors: Mission, Capacity, Community, and Costs to the Department of Defense. Redstone Arsenal consistently ranked as the top location across 21 evaluation criteria, offering a qualified workforce, quality schools, superior infrastructure, and low costs. The resolution commends the Trump administration for conducting a robust, fact-based selection process and strongly criticizes the Biden administration for subsequently choosing Colorado Springs (ranked fifth in the original evaluation) as the headquarters location. The resolution calls on the House of Representatives to recognize the validity of the original selection process, praise the Trump administration's approach, condemn the Biden administration's decision, and encourage reinstating Huntsville as the Space Command Headquarters location.
