While Harris was entitled to six months of protection after leaving the office of the vice presidency, Biden signed a directive extending her protection by an additional year, according to CNN. However, the network reports that Trump sent a letter to Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem on Thursday, effectively ending the arrangement early.
“You are hereby authorized to discontinue any security-related procedures previously authorized by Executive Memorandum, beyond those required by law, for the following individual, effective September 1, 2025: Former Vice President Kamala D. Harris,” Trump wrote in the letter, CNN reports.
The move to end Harris’ protection comes as she prepares to travel to multiple cities on a book tour to promote the release of her memoir about her presidential campaign against Trump. The book, titled 107 Days, is set to be released on Sept. 23.
