Democratic congressman who introduced the bill said it would apply to Trump if he's convicted in any of his four criminal trials.
A prominent House Democrat has introduced new legislation that would strip felons of Secret Service protection, specifically mentioning former President Donald Trump in case he's convicted in one or more of his criminal trials.
Thompson argued that current law does not contemplate how or whether Secret Service protection should or would occur in the instance that Trump—the presumptive Republican presidential nominee—or anyone else currently requiring protection is sentenced to prison.'As a result, current law may serve as an impediment to the equal administration of justice and present logistical difficulties for both the Secret Service and prison authorities at the Federal and State levels,' Thompson said.
