Nikki Haley Nears Secret Service Protection Approval Amid Campaign Threats

The congressional advisory committee has recommended Secret Service protection for Nikki Haley, forwarding the decision to DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.

Nikki Haley, the only major GOP challenger to Donald Trump in the 2024 primary, has faced increasing threats, prompting her to seek Secret Service protection.
A congressional advisory committee, including top leaders from both houses, has recommended granting Haley the protective detail.
The Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is set to make the final decision on Haley's request for protection.
Haley has reported two 'swatting' attempts at her South Carolina home, heightening concerns for her safety.
Presidential and vice presidential candidates are entitled to Secret Service protection 120 days before a general election, but requests have been coming in earlier than in past elections.
