管理和预算办公室（OMB）已向特勤局拨付3.516亿美元用于“白宫安保措施”，与此同时，唐纳德·特朗普总统仍在推动在原东翼位置建造一座舞厅。
根据OMB维护的数据库，这笔资金于周五获批，其中3.408亿美元将划入“采购、建设和改良”账户，剩余1075万美元将用于“运营和支持”账户。
这笔资金来自去年7月通过预算和解程序通过的《一项宏伟法案》中的一项条款，该条款为特勤局拨款17亿美元。法律要求这些资金用于特勤局人员、培训设施、项目、技术、人员留存和特工签约奖金。

目前尚不清楚上周获批的3.516亿美元安保资金是否会用于仍在进行中的舞厅项目，该项目已在法庭上遭遇挑战。
白宫发言人戴维斯·英格尔在给福克斯新闻数字频道的一份声明中表示，东翼现代化项目“与总统、白宫场地以及特定安全基础设施资产的安全密不可分”。
他说：“宣布建造舞厅的新闻稿强调，已就设计特征和规划问题与白宫军事办公室和美国特勤局进行了协调。特朗普总统和慷慨的美国爱国者们将为这座舞厅提供约4亿美元的资金，它将成为未来几代总统安全且合适的活动场地。”
英格尔补充道：“上周末的事件以及在白宫举行的‘UFC自由250’赛事上未遂的袭击，恰恰证明了东翼现代化项目对于大型活动的迫切必要性，其中包括防无人机结构、无人机停靠港以及其他关键安全升级措施。”
特勤局未立即回复置评请求。
特朗普曾表示，舞厅下方将设有一个“大型”六层综合设施，其中包括一家军用医院、研究设施、多个会议室以及与无人机和导弹防御相关的安全基础设施。
5月下旬，特朗普称该建筑工程造价将达4亿美元。他还坚称，舞厅将通过私人捐款而非纳税人资金出资。

《华盛顿邮报》周二报道称，该项目的承包商估计舞厅造价将达6亿美元，其中超过一半将由纳税人承担。
特朗普长期以来一直表示，建造舞厅是为了让总统活动更安全。最近一次针对白宫的威胁发生在周日，当时美国联邦调查局称其挫败了一起用绑有炸药的无人机袭击UFC自由250赛事附近建筑的阴谋。
为给计划中的舞厅让路，东翼于2025年10月被拆除，这引发了国家历史保护信托基金的诉讼。该非营利组织辩称，特朗普政府绕过了关键的审批程序，必须寻求国会对该项目的批准。
今年3月，美国地区法官理查德·利昂裁定，政府可能越权，并下令停止所有地上建筑工程。

4月17日，华盛顿特区巡回法院的一个三名法官小组暂停了利昂的命令，允许建筑工程继续进行，等待白宫上诉。
在华盛顿特区巡回法院做出裁决几天后，一名枪手在华盛顿希尔顿酒店举行的白宫记者晚宴现场出现，并在安检点向特勤局特工开枪。

嫌疑人科尔·托马斯·艾伦被抓获后，特朗普及其盟友再次呼吁建造白宫舞厅，以防未来再发生类似的安全漏洞事件。
5月23日白宫外发生枪击事件后，特朗普再次辩称建造舞厅十分必要。
“这起事件距离白宫记者晚宴枪击案仅一个月，它恰恰表明，为所有未来的总统打造华盛顿特区有史以来最安全、最稳固的同类活动场地是何等重要。我国的国家安全需要这样做！”他5月24日在Truth Social上写道。

Trump admin approves $351 million for White House security measures amid questions over ballroom funding
June 17, 2026 2:18pm EDT / Fox News
The funds come from the One Big Beautiful Bill, which gave $1.7B to the Secret Service for personnel and infrastructure

President Donald Trump offers an exclusive look at the White House Ballroom project, discussing its innovative design and its role as a secure venue for formal events. Trump states it’s a gift to America, funded by patriots, providing ample space for up to 2,000 guests, ensuring the safety of leaders for generations to come.

The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has released $351.6 million to the Secret Service for “White House Security Measures,” all while President Donald Trump continues to advocate for a ballroom to be built where the East Wing used to be.
The funds were approved on Friday, with $340.8 million being put into an account called “Procurement, Construction, and Improvements.” The other $10.75 million will go toward an “Operations and Support” account, according to a database maintained by the OMB.
This money comes from a section of the One Big Beautiful Bill, passed last July through the budget reconciliation process, that gave $1.7 billion to the Secret Service. The law requires these funds to be used for personnel, training facilities, programming, technology, retention and signing bonuses for agents.

It is unclear if the $351.6 million approved last week for security measures will be spent on the ongoing ballroom project, which has been challenged in court.
In a statement to Fox News Digital, White House spokesman Davis Ingle said the East Wing Modernization Project “is inextricably tied to the security of the President, the White House grounds and the certain security infrastructure assets”
“The press release announcing the construction of the ballroom highlighted coordination with the White House Military Office and the United States Secret Service regarding design features and planning,” he said. “President Trump and generous American patriots are funding the ballroom to the tune of approximately $400 million, which will be a secure and appropriate venue for Presidents for generations to come.”
“The events over the weekend and the foiled attack on the historic UFC Freedom 250 event at the White House proves exactly why the East Wing Modernization Project is severely needed for large scale events, which include drone proof structures and drone ports among other critical security enhancements,” Ingle added.
The Secret Service did not immediately return a request for comment.
Trump has said that there will be a “massive” six-story complex underneath the ballroom that would include a military hospital, research facilities, various meeting rooms and security infrastructure related to drone and missile defense.
In late May, Trump said the construction will cost $400 million. He has also maintained that the ballroom will be funded through private donations and not with taxpayer dollars.

The Washington Post reported on Tuesday that the contractor on the project estimated the ballroom would cost $600 million, with more than half of that sum coming from taxpayers.
Trump has long said the ballroom is needed to make presidential events more secure. The most recent threat to the White House came on Sunday, when the FBI said it disrupted an alleged plot to use explosives attached to drones to attack buildings near the UFC Freedom 250 event.
To make way for the planned ballroom, the East Wing was demolished in October 2025, which prompted a lawsuit from the National Trust for Historic Preservation. The nonprofit argued that the Trump administration had bypassed key review processes and must seek approval from Congress for the project.
In March, U.S. District Judge Richard Leon ruled that the administration had likely exceeded its authority and ordered a halt to all above-ground construction.

On April 17, a three-judge panel on the D.C. Circuit court stayed Leon’s order and allowed construction to continue pending an appeal from the White House.
Days after the D.C. Circuit’s ruling, a gunman showed up at the White House Correspondent’s Dinner, which was being held at the Washington Hilton, and fired at Secret Service agents at a security checkpoint.

After the suspect, Cole Tomas Allen, was apprehended, Trump and his allies renewed their calls for a White House ballroom so similar security lapses would not be possible in the future.

A shooting outside the White House on May 23 prompted Trump to once again argue that the ballroom is necessary.
“This event is one month removed from the White House Correspondent’s Dinner shooting, and goes to show how important it is, for all future Presidents, to get, what will be, the most safe and secure space of its kind ever built in Washington, D.C. The National Security of our Country demands it!” he wrote on Truth Social on May 24.
