 The Secret Service has stated that the requests for more security resources, including magnetometers, additional agents for screening attendees, and more snipers and specialty teams at outdoor events, were denied due to a lack of resources and competing demands. The agency has mentioned that it sometimes supplemented security with state and local law enforcement staff or adjusted plans to reduce risk.
