HR 2131 Re-checks Congress.gov for new actions and updates the bill's status, and fills in any sponsors, committees, or related bills that are missing. It does not re-pull sponsors/cosponsors/committees/related — those rarely change — and it skips all work if nothing has changed upstream, so it's cheap to click.
Presidential Security Resources Reimbursement Act of 2025
To amend title 18, United States Code, to authorize Secret Service to reimburse State and local governments for the use of services, personnel, equipment, and facilities.
Summary
This bill authorizes the Secret Service to use state and local government services, personnel, equipment, and facilities for presidential security operations on a reimbursable basis. It requires the Secretary of Homeland Security to reimburse state and local governments for any resources used to support these security functions. The bill also allows for retroactive reimbursement for resources utilized between July 12, 2024 and the date the law takes effect. This would provide a legal framework for compensating states and localities for the costs they incur in supporting federal presidential security operations.
