Task force recommends dozens of Secret Service reforms after Trump assassination attempts
The House panel tasked with investigating the two assassination attempts against President-elect Donald Trump released its final report on Tuesday, concluding that the Secret Service needed to make structural changes to prevent future threats.
The House task force’s 180-page report listed out dozens of recommendations for the agency, including increased funding, enhanced training, and the possibility of moving the Secret Service out from under the Department of Homeland Security.
The report comes after a shocking attempt on Trump’s life in July at a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
At the rally, Thomas Crooks climbed atop a building fewer than 200 yards from where Trump was speaking and opened fire into the crowd. Crooks killed one and injured two, while a bullet grazed Trump’s ear. Crooks was then killed by a counter-sniper.
Two months later, another man, Ryan Routh, was arrested after aiming a loaded rifle toward Trump International Golf Club in Florida as the president-elect was golfing. A Secret Service agent spotted Routh before he could get a shot off. Routh now faces charges of attempting to assassinate Trump.
