Contact Congress about S. 963: Space National Guard Establishment Act of 2025

Some Air National Guard space units would move into a new Space National Guard. The bill would not add extra staff or new buildings. Congress would get regular updates on its missions, people, and costs.

Modern Action explains legislation in plain English, helps you choose whether to support, oppose, or ask for changes, and drafts a message tied to the bill, your stance, and the elected officials who can act on it.

Space National Guard Establishment Act of 2025 is a Senate bill in committee. The latest recorded action: Read twice and referred to the Committee on Armed Services.

Latest action on S. 963: Read twice and referred to the Committee on Armed Services.

Who this affects: This bill mainly affects Air National Guard members in the named space units. It also affects the seven states that already host those units. The Department of the Air Force, the Space Force, and the National Guard Bureau would have to set up and report on the new force. Congress would get regular updates on missions, staffing, operations, and budget needs.

Why this matters: The bill matters because it changes where Guard space units fit inside the military. Today, these units sit in the Air National Guard. This bill would tie them more directly to the Space Force while keeping them in the Guard system. It could affect training, planning, command, and future budget choices for military space missions.

Key provisions in S. 963

  • Creates the Space National Guard as the reserve part of the U.S. Space Force.
  • Only certain existing Air National Guard space units would move into it. The units are in Alaska, California, Colorado, Florida, Hawaii, New York, and Ohio.
  • The current National Guard Bureau Director of Space Operations would lead the new force. The job would become Director of the Space National Guard, with the rank of Brigadier General, and would report to the Director of the Air National Guard.
  • The bill does not allow extra people to be assigned to the new force. States also would not get more general officers or staff to run Space National Guard administration or operations.
  • Each Space National Guard unit would stay under its current state Assistant Adjutant General for the Air Force. That is the state Air Guard leader who already oversees it.
