After a string of fence jumpers at the White House within recent years, the Secret Service has new plans to raise the height of the fence surrounding the White House. The plan is to raise the fence from 6 feet to 11 feet. Secret Service spokesperson Tom Dougherty said, “The current fence simply is not adequate for a modern era. It is entirely scale-able, depending upon the circumstances, and we have now a society that tends to want to jump over the fence.”
