A group of GOP senators, including Tommy Tuberville, Roger Marshall, Bill Cassidy, Bill Hagerty, Mike Lee, Jim Risch, Marco Rubio, and Rick Scott, have sent a letter to acting Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe requesting enhanced protection for former President Donald Trump. This request comes in the wake of an apparent assassination attempt against Trump over the weekend.
The letter emphasized the importance of providing Trump with the same level of protection as a sitting president. The senators called for additional protective resources and greater staffing capabilities to secure a broader perimeter around Trump.
