Congress Raids Old Presidential Campaign Fund


Congress quietly Drained Millions, from a largely Unused Presidential Campaign Fund, to provide a jolt of Cash to the U.S. Secret Service and State's Election Security Grants.

The Presidential Election Campaign Fund, which publicly Funded White House Aspirants’ Campaigns from the 1970s to late 2000s, will now provide $320 million to the Secret Service and $55 million for Election Security Ggrants, as a part of the $1.2 Trillion Funding Package, that Averted a Partial Government Shutdown.

Was unable to confirm which Member or Members of Congress, are responsible for inserting the Language in the middle of the 1,012-page Bill, that tapped the Fund to the tune of $375 million, Funding Major Government Departments through September.

The Secret Service, which provides Security for the President, Vice President, Prsidential Candidates, along with Foreign Heads of State, can use the Funds for a variety of purposes: from Purchasing Vehicles to Overtime Pay, to Travel Accommodations.

Trump has Refused to Reimburse Local Law Enforcement, at His Presidential State Campaign Rallies, and the Secret Service has previously Stated that it Cannot Reimburse Municipal Governments for these Public Safety Costs, because it hasn't received Money from Congress to do so.
