No, not normally. Capitol Police protect Congress. They have jurisdiction everywhere under US control and do not answer to the Executive Branch.

The White House sometimes has assigned SS protection to Congressmen or other high-profile figures on a temporary basis, such as when the become serious candidates for president or when specifically threatened.
