Presidential Election Resource Investment for Major Threat Response Act of 2024
HR 9697 (PERIMTR Act of 2024) reallocates $3 billion from unobligated funds in the Inflation Reduction Act to the U.S. Secret Service. This funding expands Secret Service protection standards currently used for the President to cover Vice Presidents, major presidential and vice presidential candidates (as defined by law), and former presidents. The bill requires the Secret Service to apply identical agent staffing, equipment, and protocols for these additional protectees as it does for the President. This is a funding mechanism change, not a new policy requiring congressional action beyond the reallocation.
