Florida Lawmakers Advocate NASA Headquarters Relocation

News summary

A bipartisan group of Florida lawmakers, led by Congressman Byron Donalds, has introduced the Consolidating Aerospace Programs Efficiently at Canaveral Act (CAPE Canaveral Act) to relocate NASA headquarters from Washington, D.C. to Florida's Space Coast. The bill, which has garnered significant support from both parties, emphasizes the historical significance of Cape Canaveral and the advantages of proximity to major launch sites like the Kennedy Space Center. The move is expected to streamline NASA's operations and enhance efficiency due to Florida's established aerospace infrastructure and its geographical benefits for launches. The current lease for NASA's headquarters is set to expire in August 2028, prompting urgency in the relocation efforts. Meanwhile, lawmakers from Ohio are also advocating for their state to be considered for the new headquarters, highlighting competitive interest from multiple regions. This initiative underscores Florida's longstanding partnership with NASA and aims to position the agency for future success.
