Bill > SRes23

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 (USSC) Headquarters. The resolution details a comprehensive selection process initiated in 2018 when President Trump directed the reestablishment of USSC as a unified combatant command, which involved a Strategic Basing Action with three phases: Self Nomination, Evaluation, and Selection. Through this process, 66 candidate locations were initially considered, ultimately narrowing to six finalists, with Redstone Arsenal consistently ranking as the top location based on factors including workforce quality, infrastructure, and cost-effectiveness. The resolution strongly commends the Trump administration for conducting a robust selection process and critically condemns the Biden administration for subsequently choosing Colorado Springs (ranked fifth in the original evaluation) as the USSC Headquarters location. The resolution calls for recognizing the original selection process as legally and policy compliant, praising Trump's administration for its national security and fiscal responsibility approach, and encourages halting the current relocation plan in favor of establishing the headquarters at Redstone Arsenal.
