As the U.S. Space Force continues to grow and mature, few relationships are more important to its success than the one it maintains with Congress. Brig. Gen. Nikki Frankino, the service’s Legislative Liaison, serves as the primary bridge between Guardians and lawmakers, helping shape the conversations that influence resources, authorities, modernization efforts, and the future direction of the nation’s newest military service.

From budget priorities and force design to long-term strategic objectives, congressional decisions will play a decisive role in determining how the Space Force develops in the years ahead. Join us for an insightful discussion on the issues, opportunities, and policy conversations shaping the future of American spacepower.
