Bill > HR4364

This bill, known as the Secret Service Recording Accountability Act of 2025, requires Secret Service agents to record all communications while providing protection to certain high-profile individuals. Specifically, these recordings must be kept for a minimum of 90 days, but can be retained for up to 18 months if requested by key congressional committees, including the Appropriations, Judiciary, Oversight and Accountability, and Homeland Security committees from both the House of Representatives and the Senate. In the event of an attempted or actual harm to a protected person, these recordings would be made available to these committees upon request. The bill amends Section 3056 of title 18 of the United States Code, which governs the duties and authorities of the Secret Service, by adding a new provision that mandates this communication recording and retention policy. The intent appears to be to enhance transparency and accountability in the Secret Service's protective operations by creating a formal record of agent communications during protective details.
