(The Center Square) - Colorado s elected officials applauded the U.S. Department of Defense s investigation into the previous administration s decision to move the U.S. Space Command headquarters from Colorado Springs. We are pleased that the Department of Defense Office of the Inspector General is evaluating the selection process for the permanent location of U.S. Space Command, Colorado Gov. Jared Polis and Lt. Gov. Dianne Primavera said in a joint statement Friday. The process was flawed and inconsistently evaluated each of the finalist locations, the duo added. Moving U.S. Space Command will disrupt the mission and risk our national security, threaten jobs and economic growth of our state and Southern Colorado.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colorado â Congressman Doug Lamborn asked a government watchdog for greater transparency about the decision by the Air Force to name Redstone Arsenal in Alabama as the permanent home of US Space Command. The Colorado Springs Republican sent a letter to the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) on Tuesday asking the organization to evaluate the methodology and scoring used in the process.
