Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley and Democratic Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto have introduced bipartisan legislation that aims to bring changes to the leadership structure of the US Secret Service. The proposed legislation would require directors of the Secret Service to undergo Senate confirmation for a single, 10-year term.
This development follows the recent resignation of US Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle. In response to this vacancy, the senators issued a joint statement emphasizing the importance of swift action in filling the leadership position.
