Question

Do ex presidents get to keep there secret service ?

Answer 1

"In 1962, Congress authorized the Secret Service (Public Law 89-186) to protect a former president and his or her spouse during their lifetime, unless they decline protection.

In 1997, Congress enacted legislation that limits Secret Service protection for former presidents to ten years after leaving office.

Under this new law, individuals who were in office before January 1, 1997 will continue to receive Secret Service protection for their lifetime.

Individuals entering office after that time will receive protection for ten years after leaving office.

Therefore, former President Bill Clinton will be the last president to receive lifetime protection, and President George W. Bush will be the first to receive protection for only ten years.

Barbara Bush, Rosalynn Carter, Hillary Clinton, Betty Ford, and Nancy Reagan continue to receive full-time protection as former First Ladies. Laura Bush will also be the first to receive protection for only ten years."

Answer 2

By law, presidents who took office after January 1997 receive protection for 10 years after leaving office. This can be extended if there is seen to be a threat to the former president.

This law is for presidents after Janry 1997, so W will be the first president to be affected.
