New law could boost security for Trump, Biden, and Kennedy Jr
A new law could give Donald Trump, Joe Biden and presidential candidate Robert Kennedy Jr enhanced Secret Service protection.
Congressmen Ritchie Torres (Democrat) and Mike Lawler (Republican) issued a statement saying: "Last night's attempted assassination of former President Trump was a dark moment in our nation's history.
"As reports continue to emerge, it's clear that more protection is needed for all major candidates for president.
"That's why we're planning on introducing bipartisan legislation providing President Joe Biden, former President Donald Trump, and presidential candidate Robert Kennedy Jr, with enhanced Secret Service protection.
"Anything less would be a disservice to our democracy."
