Rowley training center in Laurel, Maryland. This initiative aims to enhance training for agents,allowing them to familiarize themselves with the intricate layout and operations of the actual White House. Previously,agents used a replica at Tyler Perry&#8217;s film studio in Atlanta for training purposes. The project, which has been in discussion since 2015, has recently gained new momentum backed by support from Congress and the current President. Sean Curran, the new Secret service director, emphasized the importance of having a training facility that accurately reflects the White House to ensure the effectiveness and safety of their operations, especially in emergency situations.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Secret Service to create replica White House for defense training<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2097767\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3385569\/sean-curran-reflects-incredible-relationship-trump-secret-service\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Secret Service\">Secret Service<\/a> is renewing its effort to construct a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3383724\/trump-meloni-optimism-us-eu-trade-deal-white-house-meetings\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"White House\">White House<\/a> replica &ldquo;inch by inch.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>The James&nbsp;J.&nbsp;Rowley&nbsp;Training&nbsp;Center, a 500-acre center in Laurel, Maryland, is the anticipated location of a White House replica for Secret Service agents&rsquo; training.
