Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would move the U.S. Secret Service, including all of its functions, staff, property, and debts, into the Executive Office of the President. The Director would be appointed by the President, and the current Director would keep the job at the same pay. Secret Service officers and units would keep the same pay and working conditions, and the agency would first keep its current structure, though the Director could reorganize it later under federal law. The Secretary of Homeland Security would assist with the move, and the transfer would have to be completed within one year after the bill becomes law.
