The White House seeks an additional $58 million in security funding.

According to a White House official, the Trump administration is requesting an additional $58 million from Congress to strengthen security forces within the executive and judicial branches after conservative activist Charlie Kirk was fatally shot. This request for additional funding is planned to be included in an upcoming stopgap bill, as the current federal spending bill is set to expire on September 30. The government has also expressed support for increasing resources to protect lawmakers, but the specific details of this decision will be left to the legislative branch.
