GOP presses for details on $1B White House security funding tied to Trump ballroom plan
TL;DR Summary
Republican lawmakers are demanding more information on a proposed $1 billion Secret Service funding line in a reconciliation bill focused on immigration enforcement, which could cover security upgrades at the White House and the Trump ballroom project. While Democrats and the White House say the funding is needed for security after the White House Correspondents’ Dinner shooting, several Republicans want specifics and some worry the measure could undermine their agenda or be stripped out in committee or on the floor as talks continue.
