MILWAUKEE – The U.S. Secret Service held a security briefing on Sunday, July 14 and indicated there would be “no change” to security operations for the 2024 Republican National Convention being held in Milwaukee.
“We will continue to assess the security environment and adapt our security measures as appropriate,” said Audrey Gibson-Cicchino, RNC Coordinator of the Secret Service. “The Secret Service is working diligently with the Milwaukee Police Department, as well as all of our federal, state and local partners to ensure a safe and secure convention for attendees, volunteers, and the City of Milwaukee.”
Milwaukee Mayor Cavalier Johnson said he and other city leaders have one goal in mind – to make sure there is a safe convention for everyone.
“I say all that to say that we take this matter very, very seriously. We take public safety very, very seriously,” Johnson said.
