flag The U.S. Secret Service will provide two taxpayer-funded, custom-made navy blue suits to new protective detail agents, ending a practice where they paid for their own attire. flag The change, prompted by criticism from DHS Secretary Kristi Noem and aimed at addressing inequities, is being funded within the agency’s existing budget. flag While DHS denies the move is about optics, calling it a fairness initiative, it has drawn scrutiny amid a partial government shutdown and broader debates over federal spending. flag The suits, made in the U.S. and embroidered with names, are part of a five-year contract.
