The PROTECT Act of 2025 proposes significant changes to the appointment process for the Director of the United States Secret Service. Under this bill, the Director would no longer be appointed solely by the President but would require the advice and consent of the Senate , introducing a new layer of congressional oversight. Furthermore, the legislation establishes a fixed 10-year term for the Director, with an individual limited to serving only one such term. These provisions would apply to the first Director appointed after the bill's enactment, aiming to provide greater stability and accountability to the leadership of the Secret Service.
