Secret Service disbursements raise questions on ballroom funding
(Roll Call) The White House budget office released $351.6 million to the Secret Service on Friday for “White House Security Measures,” amid mounting criticism that taxpayer dollars may be tapped to help pay for President Donald Trump’s planned East Wing ballroom. The funds came from a $1.17 billion appropriation for the Secret Service contained in last year’s reconciliation package. That law specifies that those funds “may only be used for” additional Secret Service resources, including personnel, training facilities, programming, technology, and performance, retention and signing bonuses for Secret Service agents.
