The Secret Service would move from Homeland Security into the President’s executive office. Its staff and work would stay the same at first. The government would have one year to finish the move.
Modern Action explains what the legislation does, helps you choose whether to support, oppose, or ask for changes, and drafts a message tied to the bill, your stance, and the elected officials who can act on it.
Secret Service Transfer Act of 2026 is a House bill in committee. The latest recorded action: Referred to the Committee on the Judiciary, and in addition to the Committee on Homeland Security, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
Latest action on H.R. 8702: Referred to the Committee on the Judiciary, and in addition to the Committee on Homeland Security, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
Who this affects: This bill mainly affects Secret Service leaders and employees because their agency would move to a new part of the government. It also affects Homeland Security and White House staff who must manage the change. People protected or investigated by the Secret Service should see little change at first because the bill keeps the agency’s current work in place.
Why this matters: The bill could change who controls and oversees the Secret Service without changing its work right away. A closer link to the President’s staff may speed up communication. It could also raise questions about independence and political pressure. Moving the agency away from Homeland Security may change how the two agencies work together. The bill leaves those long-term details open.
