White House budget plan has Secret Service back under Treasury - Roll Call

The president's fiscal 2021 budget blueprint assumes the transfer of the Secret Service back to its traditional home within the Treasury Department.

The agency, which provides presidential security and has primary jurisdiction over a variety of financial crimes, has operated as part of the Department of Homeland Security since it moved there in the bureaucratic reorganization after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.

The proposal, which was the subject of media reports last week, was effectively revealed in a footnote to an Office of Management and Budget summary table for fiscal 2021 obtained Sunday by CQ Roll Call.

"The funding totals for 2019 actual and 2020 enacted are comparatively adjusted to reflect the Administration's 2021 Budget proposal to shift the U.S. Secret Service from DHS to the Department of the Treasury," the footnote said, in explaining an adjustment made in the table for comparison purposes.

The move, which would require legislative action, was publicly endorsed by the White House as recently as January, citing support from the current and immediate former directors of the Secret Service.
