Briefings
Colorado Springs and Huntsville are collaborating on the Golden Dome missile defense program, shifting from a contentious rivalry to a joint effort. Rep. Jeff Crank (R-CO) noted that while the relationship improved, it previously hindered national security. Huntsville will host the US Space Command HQ, while Colorado Springs will support NORAD and US Northern Command. This collaboration aims to advance missile defense beyond the 1,200 direct jobs from US Space Command, potentially creating tens of thousands of new positions. The partnership began after years of public conflict over which city would host the command headquarters since January 2021.
