This bill would prohibit the federal government from using taxpayer money to pay the salary and expenses of Kimberly Cheatle, who was the Director of the United States Secret Service at the time the bill was introduced in July 2024. The legislation specifically blocks federal funding for this position, effectively preventing the Director from being compensated with government funds. The bill was introduced by Representative Lauren Boebert and five other House members and was referred to the House Judiciary Committee. No specific timeline or alternative funding mechanism is outlined in the legislation. This appears to be a targeted accountability measure directed at the Secret Service leadership.
