Sanders got Secret Service protection in February. During his campaign, agents had to rush to protect him several times from protesters.

Sanders kept his Secret Service detail even after the last primary contest in June.

One of his colleagues, who declined to be identified, said the Vermont independent was "on an ego kick."

A report in June said the candidate's around-the-clock Secret Service protection cost taxpayers more than $38,000 a day, but a spokeswoman for the Secret Service declined to comment to CNN on the duration or cost of Sanders's protection.
