(COLORADO) — Members of both political parties joined forces in a letter addressed to President-elect Donald Trump where they urged him to keep Space Force Command in Colorado instead of moving it back to the East Coast. Earlier in November, a report by the Washington Examiner claimed Space Command would be moved out of Colorado Springs. Rep. Mike Rogers (R-AL) said on a radio show that this discussion would be one of Trump's first moves in office. Report: President-elect Donald Trump expected to move Space Command out of Colorado Springs Now, multiple congressmen, women, and senators have joined forces to write a public letter to President-elect Trump to keep Space Command in Colorado Springs. According to the letter that was sent on Friday, Nov. 22, the Space Force's presence in Olympic City is not only 'vital' but also serves as an 'economic cornerstone' for Colorado. "We urge you to consider the substantial economic and strategic benefits of keeping the Space Force in Colorado," the letter wrote, "By doing so, we continue to fortify our national security, support the well-being of service members and their families, and strengthen Colorado’s leadership as an aerospace powerhouse." The base has brought over 33,000 jobs to the state and contributes over $12.7 billion to Colorado's economy. Moving Space Force headquarters would leave a hole in the local economy, and risk 'economic setbacks'. "The loss of high-paying jobs, increased operational costs, and the potential destabilization of Colorado’s aerospace industry could reverberate far beyond our state's borders, impacting the nation’s overall economic and strategic outlook," the letter said. Members of the Colorado House of Representatives argued that maintaining the Space Force's presence in Colorado strengthened the collaboration between the military and the private sector. The letter also mentioned how Colorado's geographic qualities, infrastructure, and strategic benefits were unique, and keeping the Space Force in the Centennial State ensured both the military's strategic objectives and the economic health of the community were preserved.
