Colorado's attorney general is suing the Trump administration over the White House's plans to move the headquarters of U.S. Space Command from Colorado Springs to Huntsville, Alabama.

The White House announced its plan to move Space Command headquarters to Alabama at a press event in September 2025. During the event, Trump stated that Colorado's mail-in ballot policy played into his decision to relocate Space Command to Alabama. "The problem I had with Colorado, one of the big problems, they do mail-in voting, they went to all mail-in voting, so they have automatically crooked elections," Trump said. Democratic presidential candidate and former Vice President Kamala Harris won Colorado by 11% in the 2024 presidential election.
