CAPE Canaveral Act

# CAPE Canaveral Act Summary **What the Bill Would Do:** The CAPE Canaveral Act would require NASA to move its headquarters from its current location (Washington, D.C.) to Brevard County, Florida within one year of the bill becoming law. The bill's name is an acronym for "Consolidating Aerospace Programs Efficiently at Canaveral." **Who It Affects:** This would primarily impact NASA employees and operations, particularly headquarters staff who would need to relocate. It would also affect the broader aerospace industry and local communities in both Washington, D.C.

(losing the headquarters) and Brevard County, Florida (gaining it). Brevard County is already home to NASA's Kennedy Space Center, a major space launch facility. **Current Status:** The bill is currently in committee, meaning it has been introduced but has not yet been voted on by the full Senate. As of now, it has not advanced further in the legislative process.
