Rhode Island Senator Jack Reed, who is also the ranking member of the Senate’s Armed Services Committee, tells Fox News Sunday a Space Force “is not the way to go.” He says he agrees there is a need for protection from space as threats are now in multiple dimensions, but Trump’s proposal is not it.
