Rep. Wesley Hunt's Bill Ensures Presidential Protection

Following a Democrat proposed bill that aims to take away protection from former President Donald Trump if he is convicted of a felony and potentially incarcerated, Rep. Wesley Hunt, R-Texas, plans to introduce a bill to do the opposite, and permanently guarantee Secret Service protection to all former presidents.

The Save American Former Elected Presidents (SAFE Presidents) Act will be presented this week. It will make Secret Service protections for all U.S. presidents lifelong, irrevocable, and immune from termination due to “animosity” or “political disagreement.”

Hunt said that while Trump faces “unprecedented criminal investigations and coordinated political persecutions,” he now also faces the “prospect of losing his Secret Service protection in the middle of a presidential campaign.”
