The President has made promises related to doing what\u2019s right for national security\u2014every evaluation points to Redstone Arsenal. We have no time to waste. It\u2019s time to go vertical,&#8221; Strong said. <\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">Strong said the decision to bring the Space Command headquarters to Redstone Arsenal is long overdue and that research suggests that Huntsville favors Colorado Springs in terms of national security. <\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">\u201cI made a commitment, I want to do what\u2019s right for national security, we did a lot of research, we want to be sure that we do what\u2019s best for America.

This situation with Space Command, it\u2019s been four years. It\u2019s past due. It\u2019s been over four years since it was first announced.\u201d <\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">The Congressman added that the Huntsville-area workforce stems from over 15 different counties in both Alabama and Tennessee, and that he\u2019s ready to get the ball rolling on relocation. <\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">\u201cI don\u2019t care who makes the decision, we have no time to waste, it\u2019s time to go vertical, we have assurances from the state of Alabama, local government, our workforce comes from 17 counties in Alabama and Tennessee, I think everybody is ready for this decision to be made,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@waff48news\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@waff48news\">Click Here to Subscribe on YouTube:<\/a> Watch the latest WAFF 48 news, sports &amp; weather videos on our YouTube channel!<\/p>\n<p class=\"copyright |\">Copyright 2025 WAFF.
