HR 883 United States House · 119th Congress

Counter SNIPER Act

This bill establishes a process for presidential and vice-presidential candidates requesting Secret Service protection. If denied, the Secretary of Homeland Security must provide written notice within 14 days explaining the reason, and candidates can request reconsideration within another 14 days. The bill also requires Senate confirmation for the Secret Service Director. It directly affects candidates seeking protective details and changes procedural steps for handling such requests, without altering security eligibility standards.
