Congressman Morgan Luttrell (R-TX) has taken on the role of an original cosponsor for the GOLDEN DOME Act of 2025. This legislation, introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives, seeks to enhance the missile defense capabilities of the United States amidst increasing global threats.
"America’s enemies are getting bolder and more capable. This legislation will help keep our skies secure and ensure our children grow up under the shield of American strength, not foreign aggression," Congressman Luttrell stated. He further emphasized that "Texas is leading the way on missile defense, hypersonics, and AI and this investment in the cutting-edge work happening in our backyard supports President Trump’s plan to protect this country with unmatched strength."
The GOLDEN DOME Act aligns with President Trump's Golden Dome for America Initiative. It was established through an Executive Order dated January 27th and focuses on modernizing and expanding national missile defense systems. The act incorporates advanced technologies such as hypersonics, artificial intelligence, counter-unmanned aerial systems, and sophisticated radar capabilities.
