Trump to sign order creating Olympics task force ahead of 2028 games

LOS ANGELES COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, AUG 4 – The task force will coordinate security, transportation, visa processing, and credentialing for the 2028 Olympics, backed by $1 billion in federal funding to support planning and operations.

  • On Tuesday, President Trump will issue an executive order to establish a White House task force on security for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics, his spokesperson said.
  • Amid planning needs, the task force will coordinate federal, state and local government agencies to handle transportation and streamline visa processing for foreign athletes, coaches, officials and media.
