HR 56 United States House · 119th Congress

Secret Service Prioritization Act of 2025

HR 56, the Secret Service Prioritization Act of 2025, transfers specific investigative responsibilities from the U.S. Secret Service to the FBI Director. It directs the Secret Service to cease handling cases involving financial crimes - such as bank fraud, counterfeit currency, electronic fund transfer fraud, and crimes against federally insured financial institutions - shifting these duties to the FBI. The bill includes transition rules requiring Secret Service assets, personnel, and ongoing cases to be transferred to the FBI, with continuity for pending investigations and legal actions. This change affects how financial crime investigations are conducted but does not alter the Secret Service’s core mission of protecting national leaders or critical infrastructure.
