“At this point, the biggest thing standing in the way of SPACECOM is political inertia & sore loser syndrome, each a detriment to U.S. military effectiveness,” SenTuberville said. “It’s time we embrace the Air Force’s decision and move forward together.”
Tuberville made his comments in a letter dated Wednesday to the Senate Armed Services Committee.
The Air Force announced in January 2021 that it had identified Redstone Arsenal as the “preferred” site for the Space Command HQ. Colorado politicians responded in an uproar over the announcement but two reviews of that decision-making process have sided with the Huntsville site. “For the sake of national security and military readiness, I will strongly oppose further efforts to unnecessarily delay this critical move.”
“To date, I and others from Alabama have largely declined to engage in a public back and forth on this issue because doing so would not have been helpful to national security,” Tuberville wrote. “Instead, we have sought to allow the facts and the integrity of the process to speak for themselves. Given the recent DoD IG and GAO findings, as well as the grave threats we face from China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea, we must move forward.
