"Today, we are pleased to report that our steadfast advocacy for Coloradans has made a meaningful difference. What was once expected to result in the loss of more than 1,700 jobs will now likely only impact approximately 1,000 positions in total. This marks a significant improvement from the original projection. Further, important operational elements of Space Command will remain in Colorado Springs, preserving much of the economic driver for our region. "We have also confirmed the move will take significant time to complete, and in the intervening years, the Department of War's presence in Colorado is expected to continue its rapid growth. This includes the Space Force, which has grown by 1,500 personnel in Colorado since 2019, and is expected to grow an additional 500 positions in the next few years. Therefore, the growth of our Space Force operations has outpaced any loss. "The Colorado Republican delegation remains committed to ensuring that we are working with the Administration to minimize the impacts of this move and to continue to increase the space economy in Colorado." ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T19:10:29Z |
