To amend title 18, United States Code, to authorize Secret Service to reimburse State and local governments for the use of services, personnel, equipment, and facilities.
This bill authorizes the Secret Service to reimburse state and local governments for resources they provide to support presidential security operations. Currently, the Secret Service can use state and local services, personnel, equipment, and facilities for protecting the president, but there is no clear mechanism to compensate those governments for their contributions. The legislation amends federal law to allow the Department of Homeland Security to reimburse states and localities for these costs on a case-by-case basis with their consent. The bill does not specify funding amounts or timelines, leaving those details to be determined through the reimbursement process. This change would help offset the expenses that state and local governments incur when providing resources to support Secret Service security operations.
