Rep. Barry Moore condemns Biden's partisan USSPACECOM HQ decision

Washington, D.C. — Rep. Barry Moore released a statement following the Biden Administration's decision to locate U.S. Space Command (USSPACECOM) Headquarters in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

“In the Department of Defense’s own merit-based process, Huntsville, Alabama was chosen as the #1 location for SPACECOM and Colorado was #5,” said Moore. “It is disappointing, but not surprising, that the Biden Administration has chosen to prioritize partisan politics over national security by rejecting the objectively best location based on the DoD’s own criteria simply because it isn’t a blue state.”
