Trump expected to move Space Command to Huntsville [Video]

Rep. Mike Rogers, R-Ala., spoke Monday on Mobile radio FM Talk 106.5, saying that Trump would reverse Biden’s decision early in his presidency. “President Trump said in the campaign that he was going to reverse that decision if elected,” Rogers said.

Rogers added that Trump is likely to take swift action. “I think you’ll see in the first week that he’s in office that he will sign an executive order reversing Biden’s decision,” he said. “And we will start construction next year in Huntsville.”

In 2023, President Joe Biden decided to keep U.S. Space Command headquarters in Colorado, overturning a last-ditch decision by the Trump administration to move it to Alabama. 

Formally created in August 2019, the command was temporarily based in Colorado, and Air Force and Space Force leaders initially recommended it stay there.
