              Subtitle C--Military Tribunals Authorization

SEC. 1301. SHORT TITLE.

    This subtitle may be cited as the ``Military Tribunal Authorization 
Act of 2003''.

SEC. 1302. FINDINGS.

    Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) The al Qaeda terrorist organization and its leaders 
        have committed unlawful attacks against the United States, 
        including the August 7, 1998 bombings of the United States 
        embassies in Nairobi, Kenya, and Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, the 
        October 12, 2000 attack on the USS COLE and the September 11, 
        2001 attacks on the United States.
            (2) The al Qaeda terrorist organization and its leaders 
        have threatened renewed attacks on the United States and have 
        threatened the use of weapons of mass destruction.
            (3) In violation of the resolutions of the United Nations, 
        the Taliban of Afghanistan provided a safe haven to the al 
        Qaeda terrorist organization and its leaders and allowed the 
        territory of that country to be used as a base from which to 
        sponsor international terrorist operations.
            (4) The United Nations Security Council, in Resolution 
        1267, declared in 1999 that the actions of the Taliban 
        constitute a threat to international peace and security.
            (5) The United Nations Security Council, in Resolutions 
        1368 and 1373, declared in September 2001 that the September 11 
        attacks against the United States constitute a threat to 
        international peace and security.
            (6) The United States is justified in exercising its right 
        of self-defense pursuant to international law and the United 
        Nations Charter.
            (7) Congress authorized the President on September 18, 
        2001, to use all necessary and appropriate force against those 
        nations, organizations, or persons that he determines to have 
        planned, authorized, committed, or aided the September 11 
        terrorist attacks or harbored such organizations or persons, in 
        order to prevent any future acts of international terrorism 
        against the United States, within the meaning of section 5(b) 
        of the War Powers Resolution.
            (8) The United States and its allies are engaged in armed 
        conflict with al Qaeda and the Taliban.
            (9) Military trials of the terrorists may be appropriate to 
        protect the safety of the public and those involved in the 
        investigation and prosecution, to facilitate the use of 
        classified information as evidence without compromising 
        intelligence or military efforts, and otherwise to protect 
        national security interests.
            (10) Military trials that provide basic procedural 
        guarantees of fairness, consistent with the international law 
        of armed conflict and the International Covenant on Civil and 
        Political Rights (opened for signature December 16, 1966), 
        would garner the support of the community of nations.
            (11) Article I, section 8, of the Constitution provides 
        that the Congress, not the President, has the power to 
        ``constitute Tribunals inferior to the Supreme Court; ... 
        define and punish ... Offenses against the Law of Nations; ... 
        make Rules concerning Captures on Land and Water; ... make all 
        Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into 
        Execution the foregoing Powers and all other Powers vested by 
        this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in 
        any Department or Officer thereof.''.
            (12) Congressional authorization is necessary for the 
        establishment of extraordinary tribunals to adjudicate and 
        punish offenses arising from the September 11, 2001 attacks 
        against the United States and to provide a clear and 
        unambiguous legal foundation for such trials.

States, and use to the fullest extent possible multilateral 
institutions and mechanisms for carrying out such investigations and 
prosecutions.

          Subtitle D--Anti Terrorist Hoaxes and False Reports

SEC. 1401. SHORT TITLE.

    This subtitle may be cited as the ``Anti Terrorist Hoax and False 
Report Act of 2003''.

SEC. 1402. FINDINGS.

    Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) The expert resources available to the Government to 
        deal with Federal crimes involving actual, potential or 
        threatened use of chemical, biological, and nuclear weapons and 
        weapons of mass destruction are limited.
            (2) False reporting of such crimes and actual hoaxes 
        involving such crimes almost invariably require the attention 
        of Federal investigative, scientific, and public health 
        officers and employees.
            (3) Recent episodes demonstrate that even isolated false 
        reports and hoaxes present a serious threat to the Nation and 
        can have a substantial adverse effect on interstate and foreign 
        commerce, causing needless worry or even panic in the general 
        public, interrupting vital interstate and foreign travel and 
        communications facilities, disrupting commercial and business 
        activities that depend on interstate travel and communications, 
        and encouraging copycat episodes.
            (4) State and local law enforcement and government agencies 
        are often the first responders to any report of a chemical, 
        biological, or nuclear threat or to a report of a weapon of 
        mass destruction, whether real or a hoax, and Federal law 
        enforcement authorities often work closely with, and depend 
        upon, State and local first responders in deploying scarce 
        Federal resources after such a report.
            (5) A comprehensive prohibition on such false reports and 
        hoaxes is necessary to preserve scarce and vital Federal 
        resources, avoid substantial adverse effects on interstate and 
        foreign commerce, and to protect the national security of the 
        United States.

SEC. 1403. HOAXES, FALSE REPORTS AND REIMBURSEMENT.

    (a) In General.--Chapter 41 of title 18, United States Code, is 
amended by inserting after section 880 the following:
``Sec. 881. False information and hoaxes.
    ``(a) Unlawful Acts.--It shall be unlawful for any person--
            ``(1) to impart or convey or cause to be imparted or 
        conveyed false information, knowing the information is false, 
        concerning an attempt or alleged attempt being made, or to be 
        made, to do any act which would be a crime under section 175, 
        229, 831, or 2332a of this title, and under circumstances where 
        such information may reasonably be believed; or
            ``(2) to transfer or distribute or cause to be transferred 
        or distributed any device or material, knowing or intending 
        that the device or material resembles a nuclear, chemical, or 
        biological weapon, or other weapon of mass destruction (as 
        defined in section 2332a(c)(2) of this title), and under 
        circumstances where such device or material may reasonably be 
        believed to involve an attempt or alleged attempt to do an act 
        which would be a crime under section 175, 229, 831, or 2332a of 
        this title.
    ``(b) Criminal Penalties.--
            ``(1) Any person who violates subsection (a)(1) or (a)(2) 
        shall--
                    ``(A) in the case of a first violation, be fined 
                under this title, or imprisoned not more than one year, 
                or both; and
                    ``(B) in the case of subsequent violations, be 
                fined under this title, or imprisoned not more than 
                five years, or both; and
            ``(2) Any person who willfully and maliciously, or with 
        reckless disregard for the safety of human life, violates 
        subsection (a)(1) or (a)(2) shall be fined under this title, or 
        imprisoned not more than five years, or both.
    ``(b) Reimbursement.--
            ``(1) Notwithstanding and in addition to sections 3663 and 
        3663A of this title and any other civil or criminal penalty 
        authorized by law, the court shall order any person convicted 
        of an offense under subsection (a)(1) or (a)(2) to reimburse--
                    ``(A) any person injured by the offense for any 
                losses and expenses incurred as a direct or proximate 
                result of such offense; and
                    ``(B) any Federal, State, or local government 
                entity for any losses and expenses incurred incident to 
                an emergency or investigative response to the offense.
            ``(2) A person who is subject to an order of reimbursement 
        under this subsection shall be jointly and severally liable 
        with each other person, if any, who is subject to an order of 
        reimbursement for the same losses and expenses.
            ``(3) An order of reimbursement under this subsection 
        shall, for purposes of enforcement, be treated as a civil 
        judgment.
    ``(c) Civil Remedies.--
            ``(1) Any person aggrieved by reason of the conduct 
        prohibited by subsection (a)(1) or (a)(2) may commence a civil 
        action. In such an action, the court may award appropriate 
        relief, including injunctive relief and compensatory and 
        punitive damages, as well as the costs of suit and reasonable 
        fees for attorneys and expert witnesses. With respect to 
        compensatory damages, the plaintiff may elect, at any time 
        prior to the rendering of final judgment, to recover, in lieu 
        of actual damages, an award of statutory damages in the amount 
        of $5,000 per violation.
            ``(2) If the Attorney General of the United States has 
        reasonable cause to believe that any person or group of persons 
        has been injured by conduct prohibited by subsection (a)(1) or 
        (a)(2), the Attorney General may commence a civil action. In 
        such an action, the court may award appropriate relief, 
        including injunctive relief and compensatory damages to persons 
        aggrieved as described in paragraph (1) and to any Federal, 
State, or local government entity that would be entitled to 
reimbursement under subsection (b). The court, to vindicate the public 
interest, may also assess a civil penalty in an amount not exceeding 
$5,000 for a first violation, or $10,000 for any subsequent violation.
            ``(3) The imposition of a civil penalty under paragraph (2) 
        does not preclude any other criminal or civil statutory, common 
        law, or administrative remedy, which is available by law to the 
        United States or any other person.
    (b) Clerical Amendment.--The table of sections at the beginning of

 PART 2--PROSECUTIONAL REMEDIES AND TOOLS AGAINST THE EXPLOITATION OF 
                             CHILDREN TODAY

SEC. 2121. SHORT TITLE.

    This part may be cited as the ``Prosecutorial Remedies and Tools 
Against the Exploitation of Children Today Act of 2003'' or ``PROTECT 
Act''.

SEC. 2122. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds the following:
            (1) Obscenity and child pornography are not entitled to 
        protection under the First Amendment under Miller v. 
        California, 413 U.S. 15 (1973) (obscenity), or New York v. 
        Ferber, 458 U.S. 747 (1982) (child pornography) and thus may be 
        prohibited.
            (2) The Government has a compelling state interest in 
        protecting children from those who sexually exploit them, 
        including both child molesters and child pornographers. ``The 
        prevention of sexual exploitation and abuse of children 
        constitutes a government objective of surpassing importance,'' 
        New York v. Ferber, 458 U.S. 747, 757 (1982) (emphasis added), 
        and this interest extends to stamping out the vice of child 
        pornography at all levels in the distribution chain. Osborne v. 
        Ohio, 495 U.S. 103, 110 (1990).
            (3) The Government thus has a compelling interest in 
        ensuring that the criminal prohibitions against child 
        pornography remain enforceable and effective. ``[T]he most 
        expeditious if not the only practical method of law enforcement 
        may be to dry up the market for this material by imposing 
        severe criminal penalties on persons selling, advertising, or 
        otherwise promoting the product.'' Ferber, 458 U.S. at 760.
            (4) In 1982, when the Supreme Court decided Ferber, the 
        technology did not exist to: (A) create depictions of virtual 
        children that are indistinguishable from depictions of real 
        children; (B) create depictions of virtual children using 
        compositions of real children to create an unidentifiable 
        child; or (C) disguise pictures of real children being abused 
        by making the image look computer generated.
            (5) Evidence submitted to the Congress, including from the 
        National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, 
        demonstrates that technology already exists to disguise 
        depictions of real children to make them unidentifiable and to 
        make depictions of real children appear computer generated. The 
        technology will soon exist, if it does not already, to make 
        depictions of virtual children look real.
            (6) The vast majority of child pornography prosecutions 
        today involve images contained on computer hard drives, 
        computer disks, and/or related media.
            (7) There is no substantial evidence that any of the child 
        pornography images being trafficked today were made other than 
        by the abuse of real children. Nevertheless, technological 
        advances since Ferber have led many criminal defendants to 
        suggest that the images of child pornography they possess are 
        not those of real children, insisting that the government prove 
        beyond a reasonable doubt that the images are not computer-
        generated. Such challenges will likely increase after the 
        Ashcroft v. Free Speech Coalition decision.
            (8) Child pornography circulating on the Internet has, by 
        definition, been digitally uploaded or scanned into computers 
        and has been transferred over the Internet, often in different 
        file formats, from trafficker to trafficker. An image seized 
        from a collector of child pornography is rarely a first-
        generation product, and the retransmission of images can alter 
        the image so as to make it difficult for even an expert 
        conclusively to opine that a particular image depicts a real 
        child. If the original image has been scanned from a paper 
        version into a digital format, this task can be even harder 
        since proper forensic delineation may depend on the quality of 
        the image scanned and the tools used to scan it.
            (9) The impact on the government's ability to prosecute 
        child pornography offenders is already evident. The Ninth 
        Circuit has seen a significant adverse effect on prosecutions 
        since the 1999 Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals decision in Free 
        Speech Coalition. After that decision, prosecutions generally 
        have been brought in the Ninth Circuit only in the most clear-
        cut cases in which the government can specifically identify the 
        child in the depiction or otherwise identify the origin of the 
        image. This is a fraction of meritorious child pornography 
        cases. The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children 
        testified that, in light of the Supreme Court's affirmation of 
        the Ninth Circuit decision, prosecutors in various parts of the 
        country have expressed concern about the continued viability of 
        previously indicted cases as well as declined potentially 
        meritorious prosecutions.
            (10) In the absence of congressional action, this problem 
        will continue to grow increasingly worse. The mere prospect 
        that the technology exists to create computer or computer-
        generated depictions that are indistinguishable from depictions 
        of real children will allow defendants who possess images of 
        real children to escape prosecution, for it threatens to create 
        a reasonable doubt in every case of computer images even when a 
        real child was abused. This threatens to render child 
        pornography laws that protect real children unenforceable.
            (11) To avoid this grave threat to the Government's 
        unquestioned compelling interest in effective enforcement of 
        the child pornography laws that protect real children, a 
        statute must be adopted that prohibits a narrowly-defined 
        subcategory of images.
            (12) The Supreme Court's 1982 Ferber v. New York decision 
        holding that child pornography was not protected drove child 
        pornography off the shelves of adult bookstores. Congressional 
        action is necessary to ensure that open and notorious 
        trafficking in such materials does not reappear.

         PART 5--CHILDREN'S CONFINEMENT CONDITIONS IMPROVEMENT

SEC. 2161. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds that--
            (1) recent studies have established that youth are 
        developmentally different from adults, and these developmental 
        differences need to be taken into account at all stages and in 
        all aspects of the adult criminal justice system;
            (2) pretrial release or detention of juveniles awaiting 
        trial in adult criminal court should only occur after 
        consideration of their special characteristics and the nature 
        of their offenses;
            (3)(A) if detained or incarcerated, juveniles under the 
        jurisdiction of an adult criminal court should be housed in 
        institutions or facilities separate from adult facilities until 
        their eighteenth birthday; and
            (B) those juveniles should not have sight or sound contact 
        with adult inmates;
            (4) juveniles detained or incarcerated under the 
        jurisdiction of an adult criminal court should be provided 
        access to programs that address their educational, substance 
        abuse treatment, health, mental health, and vocational needs;
            (5) juveniles detained or incarcerated under the 
        jurisdiction of an adult criminal court should be provided with 
        the mechanisms to report instances of physical, mental, or 
        psychological abuse or intimidation, and allegations of such 
        abuse or intimidation should be promptly investigated, and if 
        proven correct, should be properly remedied;
            (6) transfer to and sentencing of juveniles in the adult 
        criminal court system should be based on consideration of the 
        individual characteristics of the juvenile and the nature of 
        the offense committed;
            (7) according to recent studies, juveniles who are placed 
        in adult facilities are more likely to commit future crimes;
            (8) housing juveniles with, or in close proximity to, adult 
        inmates creates difficulties and potentially unsafe conditions 
        for jail and prison personnel, and juveniles and adult inmates, 
        since many adult jails and prisons lack the physical structure, 
programming, and trained personnel to manage juveniles effectively;
            (9) according to the Department of Justice, the suicide 
        rate for juveniles in adult jails is nearly 8 times higher than 
        the rate in juvenile detention, and the highest rate of suicide 
        in jail occurs during the first 24 hours of commitment;
            (10) according to the Department of Justice, juveniles in 
        adult facilities are 5 times more likely to be sexually 
        assaulted, twice as likely to be beaten by staff, and 50 
        percent more likely to be attacked with a weapon than 
        adolescents in a juvenile facility; and
            (11) rural States and economically depressed communities 
        have pronounced difficulties in providing secure custody for 
        juvenile offenders apart from adult inmates.

SEC. 2162. PURPOSE.

    The purpose of this part is to provide incentives and funding 
assistance for States to reduce dangerous and unsafe conditions in the 
detention and incarceration of juvenile offenders under the 
jurisdiction of an adult criminal court, including separating those 
juvenile offenders from adult prisoners and ensuring that corrections 
officers who supervise them receive training in supervision issues 
unique to juveniles.

SEC. 2163. DEFINITION.

    In this part, the term ``juvenile'' means an individual who has not 
reached the age of 18.

        court;
            (2) provide correctional staff who are responsible for 
        supervising juveniles who are detained or are serving sentences 
        in adult prisons or jails under the jurisdiction of an adult 
        criminal court with orientation and ongoing training to address 
        the developmental, educational, vocational, and mental and 
        physical health needs of those offenders;
            (3) provide ombudsmen to monitor the treatment of juveniles 
        who are detained or are serving sentences in adult prisons or 
        jails under the jurisdiction of an adult criminal court;
            (4) provide access to educational programs, vocational 
        training, mental and physical health assessment and treatment, 
        and drug treatment for juveniles who are serving sentences 
        under the jurisdiction of an adult criminal court; or
            (5) seek alternatives, including the expansion of juvenile

                on the appropriate use of force against incarcerated 
                juveniles, and has prohibited the use of electroshock

SEC. 2201. SHORT TITLE.

    This subtitle may be cited as the ``Seniors Safety Act of 2003''.

SEC. 2202. FINDINGS AND PURPOSES.

    (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) The number of older Americans is rapidly growing in the 
        United States. According to the 2000 census, 21 percent of the 
        United States population is 55 years of age or older.
            (2) In 1997, 7 percent of victims of serious violent crime 
        were 50 years of age or older.
            (3) In 1997, 17.7 percent of murder victims were 55 years 
        of age or older.
            (4) According to the Department of Justice, persons 65 
        years of age and older experienced approximately 2,700,000 
        crimes a year between 1992 and 1997.
            (5) Older victims of violent crime are almost twice as 
        likely as younger victims to be raped, robbed, or assaulted at 
        or in their own homes.
            (6) Approximately half of all Americans who are 50 years of 
        age or older are afraid to walk alone at night in their own 
        neighborhoods.
            (7) Seniors over 50 years of age reportedly account for 37 
        percent of the estimated $40,000,000,000 in losses each year 
        due to telemarketing fraud.
            (8) A 1996 American Association of Retired Persons survey 
        of people 50 years of age and older showed that 57 percent were 
        likely to receive calls from telemarketers at least once a 
        week.
            (9) In 1998, Congress enacted legislation to provide for 
        increased penalties for telemarketing fraud that targets 
        seniors.
            (10) It has been estimated that--
                    (A) approximately 43 percent of persons turning 65 
                years of age can expect to spend some time in a long-
                term care facility; and
                    (B) approximately 20 percent can expect to spend 5 
                years or more in a such a facility.
            (11) In 1997, approximately $82,800,000,000 was spent on 
        nursing home care in the United States and over half of this 
        amount was spent by the Medicaid and Medicare programs.
            (12) Losses to fraud and abuse in health care reportedly 
        cost the United States an estimated $100,000,000,000 in 1996.
            (13) The Inspector General for the Department of Health and 
        Human Services has estimated that about $12,600,000,000 in 
        improper Medicare benefit payments, due to inadvertent mistake, 
        fraud, and abuse were made during fiscal year 1998.
            (14) Incidents of health care fraud and abuse remain common 
        despite awareness of the problem.
    (b) Purposes.--The purposes of this subtitle are to--
            (1) combat nursing home fraud and abuse;
            (2) enhance safeguards for pension plans and health care 
        programs;
            (3) develop strategies for preventing and punishing crimes 
        that target or otherwise disproportionately affect seniors by 
        collecting appropriate data--
                    (A) to measure the extent of crimes committed 
                against seniors; and
                    (B) to determine the extent of domestic and elder 
                abuse of seniors; and
            (4) prevent and deter criminal activity, such as 
        telemarketing fraud, that results in economic and physical harm 
        against seniors, and ensure appropriate restitution.

TITLE III--DETERRING IDENTITY THEFT AND ASSISTING VICTIMS OF CRIME AND 
                           DOMESTIC VIOLENCE

                  Subtitle A--Deterring Identity Theft

               PART 1--IDENTITY THEFT VICTIMS ASSISTANCE

SEC. 3111. SHORT TITLE.

    This part may be cited as the ``Identity Theft Victims Assistance 
Act of 2003''.

SEC. 3112. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds that--
            (1) the crime of identity theft is the fastest growing 
        crime in the United States;
            (2) victims of identity theft often have extraordinary 
        difficulty restoring their credit and regaining control of 
        their identity because of the viral nature of identity theft;
            (3) identity theft may be ruinous to the good name and 
        credit of consumers whose identities are misappropriated, and 
        victims of identity theft may be denied otherwise well-deserved 
        credit, may have to spend enormous time, effort, and sums of 
        money to remedy their circumstances, and may suffer extreme 
        emotional distress including deep depression founded in 
        profound frustration as they address the array of problems that 
        may arise as a result of identity theft;
            (4) victims are often required to contact numerous Federal, 
        State, and local law enforcement agencies, consumer credit 
        reporting agencies, and creditors over many years, as each 
        event of fraud arises;
            (5) the Government, business entities, and credit reporting 
        agencies have a shared responsibility to assist identity theft 
        victims, to mitigate the harm that results from fraud 
        perpetrated in the victim's name;
            (6) victims of identity theft need a nationally 
        standardized means of--
                    (A) reporting identity theft to consumer credit 
                reporting agencies and business entities; and
                    (B) evidencing their true identity and claim of 
                identity theft to consumer credit reporting agencies 
                and business entities;
            (7) one of the greatest law enforcement challenges posed by 
        identity theft is that stolen identities are often used to 
        perpetrate crimes in many different localities in different 
        States, and although identity theft is a Federal crime, most 
        often, State and local law enforcement agencies are responsible 
        for investigating and prosecuting the crimes; and
            (8) the Federal Government should assist State and local 
        law enforcement agencies to effectively combat identity theft 
        and the associated fraud.

SEC. 3113. TREATMENT OF IDENTITY THEFT MITIGATION.

    (a) In General.--Chapter 47 title 18, United States Code, is

                   PART 2--IDENTITY THEFT PREVENTION

SEC. 3121. SHORT TITLE.

    This part may be cited as the ``Identity Theft Prevention Act of 
2003''.

SEC. 3122. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds that--
            (1) the crime of identity theft has become one of the major 
        law enforcement challenges of the new economy, as vast 
        quantities of sensitive, personal information are now 
        vulnerable to criminal interception and misuse;
            (2) in November 2002, Americans were alerted to the dangers 
        of identity theft when Federal prosecutors announced that 3 
        individuals had allegedly sold the credit and personal 
        information of 30,000 people, the largest single identity theft 
        case in United States history;
            (3) hundreds of thousands of Americans are victims of 
        identity theft each year, resulting in an annual cost to 
        industry of more than $3,500,000,000.
            (4) several indicators reveal that despite increased public 
        awareness of the crime, the number of incidents of identity 
        theft continues to rise;
            (5) in December 2001, the Federal Trade Commission received 
        an average of more than 3,000 identity theft calls per week, a 
        700 percent increase since the Identity Theft Data 
        Clearinghouse began operation in November 1999;
            (6) allegations of social security number fraud increased 
        by 500 percent between 1998 and 2001, from 11,000 to 65,000;
            (7) a national credit reporting agency reported that 
        consumer requests for fraud alerts increased by 53 percent 
        during fiscal year 2001;
            (8) identity theft violates the privacy of American 
        citizens and ruins their good names;
            (9) victims of identity theft may suffer restricted access 
        to credit and diminished employment opportunities, and may 
        spend years repairing the damage to credit histories caused by 
        identity theft;
            (10) businesses and government agencies that handle 
        sensitive personal information of consumers have a 
        responsibility to protect this information from identity 
        thieves; and
            (11) the private sector can better protect consumers by 
        implementing effective fraud alerts, affording greater consumer 
        access to credit reports, truncating of credit card numbers, 
        and establishing other prevention measures.

SEC. 3123. IDENTITY THEFT PREVENTION.

    (a) Changes of Address.--
            (1) Duty of issuers of credit.--Section 132 of the Truth in 
        Lending Act (15 U.S.C. 1642) is amended--
                    (A) by inserting ``(a) In General.--'' before ``No 
                credit''; and
                    (B) by adding at the end the following:
    ``(b) Confirmation of Changes of Address.--If a card issuer 
receives a request for an additional credit card with respect to an 
existing credit account not later than 30 days after receiving 
notification of a change of address for that account, the card issuer 
shall--
            ``(1) not later than 5 days after sending the additional 
        card to the new address, notify the cardholder of the request 
        at both the new address and the former address; and
            ``(2) provide to the cardholder a means of promptly 
        reporting incorrect changes.''.
            (2) Enforcement.--
                    (A) Federal trade commission.--Except as provided 
                in subparagraph (B), compliance with section 132(b) of 
                the Truth in Lending Act (as added by this subsection) 
                shall be enforced by the Federal Trade Commission in 
                the same manner and with the same power and authority 
                as the Commission has under the Fair Debt Collection 
                Practices Act to enforce compliance with that Act.
                    (B) Other agencies in certain cases.--
                            (i) In general.--Compliance with section 
                        132(b) of the Truth in Lending Act shall be

            PART 3--SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER MISUSE PREVENTION

SEC. 3131. SHORT TITLE.

    This part may be cited as the ``Social Security Number Misuse 
Prevention Act of 2003''.

SEC. 3132. FINDINGS.

    Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) The inappropriate display, sale, or purchase of social 
        security numbers has contributed to a growing range of illegal 
        activities, including fraud, identity theft, and, in some 
        cases, stalking and other violent crimes.
            (2) While financial institutions, health care providers, 
        and other entities have often used social security numbers to 
        confirm the identity of an individual, the general display to 
        the public, sale, or purchase of these numbers has been used to 
        commit crimes, and also can result in serious invasions of 
        individual privacy.
            (3) The Federal Government requires virtually every 
        individual in the United States to obtain and maintain a social 
        security number in order to pay taxes, to qualify for social 
        security benefits, or to seek employment. An unintended 
        consequence of these requirements is that social security 
        numbers have become one of the tools that can be used to 
        facilitate crime, fraud, and invasions of the privacy of the 
        individuals to whom the numbers are assigned. Because the 
        Federal Government created and maintains this system, and 
        because the Federal Government does not permit individuals to 
        exempt themselves from those requirements, it is appropriate 
        for the Federal Government to take steps to stem the abuse of 
        social security numbers.
            (4) The display, sale, or purchase of social security 
        numbers in no way facilitates uninhibited, robust, and wide-
        open public debate, and restrictions on such display, sale, or 
        purchase would not affect public debate.
            (5) No one should seek to profit from the display, sale, or 
        purchase of social security numbers in circumstances that 
        create a substantial risk of physical, emotional, or financial 
        harm to the individuals to whom those numbers are assigned.
            (6) Consequently, this part provides each individual that 
        has been assigned a social security number some degree of 
        protection from the display, sale, and purchase of that number 
        in any circumstance that might facilitate unlawful conduct.

    (b) Display, Sale, or Purchase Rulemaking With Respect to 
Interactions Between Businesses, Governments, or Business and 
Government.--
            (1) In general.--Not later than 1 year after the date of 
        enactment of this Act, the Attorney General, in consultation 
        with the Commissioner of Social Security, the Chairman of the 
        Federal Trade Commission, and such other heads of Federal 
        agencies as the Attorney General determines appropriate, shall 
        conduct such rulemaking procedures in accordance with 
        subchapter II of chapter 5 of title 5, United States Code, as 
        are necessary to promulgate regulations to implement and 
        clarify the uses occurring as a result of an interaction 
        between businesses, governments, or business and government 
        (regardless of which entity initiates the interaction) 
        permitted under section 1028A(e)(5) of title 18, United States 
        Code (as added by section 3133(a)(1)).
            (2) Factors to be considered.--In promulgating the 
        regulations required under paragraph (1), the Attorney General 
        shall, at a minimum, consider the following:

                customers of the business, and to the general public of 
                the display, sale, or purchase of an individual's 
                social security number.
                    (B) The costs that businesses, customers of 
                businesses, and the general public may incur as a 
                result of prohibitions on the display, sale, or 
                purchase of social security numbers.
                    (C) The risk that a particular business practice 
                will promote the use of a social security number to 
                commit fraud, deception, or crime.
                    (D) The presence of adequate safeguards and 
                procedures to prevent--
                            (i) misuse of social security numbers by 
                        employees within a business; and
                            (ii) misappropriation of social security 
                        numbers by the general public, while permitting 
                        internal business uses of such numbers.
                    (E) The presence of procedures to prevent identity 
                thieves, stalkers, and other individuals with ill 
                intent from posing as legitimate businesses to obtain 
                social security numbers.

    ``(x) No Federal, State, or local agency may display the social 
security account number of any individual, or any derivative of such

SEC. 4502. ESTABLISHMENT OF PROTECTIVE FUNCTION PRIVILEGE.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
            (1) The physical safety of the Nation's top elected 
        officials is a public good of transcendent importance.
            (2) By virtue of the critical importance of the Office of 
        the President, the President and those in direct line of the 
        Presidency are subject to unique and mortal jeopardy--jeopardy 
        that in turn threatens profound disruption to our system of 
        representative government and to the security and future of the 
        Nation.
            (3) The physical safety of visiting heads of foreign states 
        and foreign governments is also a matter of paramount 
        importance. The assassination of such a person while on 
        American soil could have calamitous consequences for our 
        foreign relations and national security.
            (4) Given these grave concerns, Congress has provided for 
        the Secret Service to protect the President and those in direct 
        line of the Presidency, and has directed that these officials 
        may not waive such protection. Congress has also provided for 
        the Secret Service to protect visiting heads of foreign states 
        and foreign governments.
            (5) The protective strategy of the Secret Service depends 
        critically on the ability of its personnel to maintain close 
        and unremitting physical proximity to the protectee.
            (6) Secret Service personnel must remain at the side of the 
        protectee on occasions of confidential conversations and, as a 
        result, may overhear top secret discussions, diplomatic 
        exchanges, sensitive conversations, and matters of personal 
        privacy.
            (7) The necessary level of proximity can be maintained only 
        in an atmosphere of complete trust and confidence between the 
        protectee and his or her protectors.
            (8) If a protectee has reason to doubt the confidentiality 
        of actions or conversations taken in sight or hearing of Secret 
        Service personnel, the protectee may seek to push the 
        protective envelope away or undermine it to the point at which 
        it could no longer be fully effective.
            (9) The possibility that Secret Service personnel might be 
        compelled to testify against their protectees could induce 
        foreign nations to refuse Secret Service protection in future 
        state visits, making it impossible for the Secret Service to 
        fulfill its important statutory mission of protecting the life 
        and safety of foreign dignitaries.
            (10) A privilege protecting information acquired by Secret 
        Service personnel while performing their protective function in 
        physical proximity to a protectee will preserve the security of 
        the protectee by lessening the incentive of the protectee to 
        distance Secret Service personnel in situations in which there 
        is some risk to the safety of the protectee.
            (11) Recognition of a protective function privilege for the 
        President and those in direct line of the Presidency, and for 
        visiting heads of foreign states and foreign governments, will 
        promote sufficiently important interests to outweigh the need 
        for probative evidence.
            (12) Because Secret Service personnel retain law 
        enforcement responsibility even while engaged in their 
        protective function, the privilege must be subject to a crime 
        or treason exception.
    (b) Purposes.--The purposes of this Act are--
            (1) to facilitate the relationship of trust and confidence 
        between Secret Service personnel and certain protected 
        officials that is essential to the ability of the Secret 
        Service to protect these officials, and the Nation, from the 
        risk of assassination; and
            (2) to ensure that Secret Service personnel are not 
        precluded from testifying in a criminal investigation or 
        prosecution about unlawful activity committed within their view 
        or hearing.
    (c) Admissibility of Information Acquired by Secret Service 
Personnel While Performing Their Protective Function.--
            (1) Protective function privilege.--Chapter 203 of title 
        18, United States Code, is amended by inserting after section 
        3056 the following:
``Sec. 3056A. Testimony by Secret Service personnel; protective 
              function privilege
    ``(a) Definitions.--In this section:

disclosed in any trial, hearing, or other proceeding in or before any 
court, grand jury, department, officer, agency, regulatory body, or 
other authority of the United States, a State, or a political 
subdivision thereof.
    ``(c) Exceptions.--There is no privilege under this section--
            ``(1) with respect to information that, at the time the

        sufficient to provide reasonable grounds to believe that a 
        crime had been, was being, or would be committed; or
            ``(2) if the privilege is waived by the protectee or the 
        legal representative of a protectee or deceased protectee.''.
            (2) Technical and conforming amendment.--The analysis for 
        chapter 203 of title 18, United States Code, is amended by 
        inserting after the item relating to section 3056 the 
        following:

                            privilege.''.
            (3) Application.--This section and the amendments made by 
        this section shall apply to any proceeding commenced on or 
        after the date of enactment of this section.

                        parent, or guardian, (for example, the 
                        equivalent of ``common-law marriage'' even if 
                        such relationship is not recognized under the 
                        law), or a person similarly situated to a 
                        spouse, parent, or guardian of the victim (for 
                        example, 2 persons who are residing at the same 
                        location in an intimate relationship with the 
                        intent to make that place their home would be 
                        similarly situated to a spouse).

                considered to have been convicted of such an offense 
                for purposes of subparagraph (A) unless--
                            (i) the person is considered to have been 
                        convicted by the jurisdiction in which the 
                        proceeding was held;
                            (ii) the person was represented by counsel 
                        in the case, or knowingly and intelligently 
                        waived the right to counsel in the case; and
                            (iii) in the case of a prosecution for 
                        which a person was entitled to a jury trial in 
                        the jurisdiction in which the case was tried--
                                    (I) the case was tried by a jury; 
                                or
                                    (II) the person knowingly and 
                                intelligently waived the right to have 
                                the case tried by a jury, by guilty 
                                plea, or otherwise.
                    (C) Pardon or set-aside of judgment.--A person 
                shall not be considered to have been convicted of such 
                an offense for purposes of subparagraph (A) if the 
                conviction has been expunged or set aside, or is an 
                offense for which the person has been pardoned or has 
                had civil rights restored (if the law of the 
                jurisdiction in which the proceedings were held 
                provides for the loss of civil rights upon conviction 
                of such an offense) unless the pardon, expungement, or 
                restoration of civil rights expressly provides that the 
                person may not ship, transport, possess, or receive 
                firearms, and the person is not otherwise prohibited by 
                the law of the jurisdiction in which the proceedings

                 PART 6--CLOSING THE GUN SHOW LOOPHOLE

SEC. 5251. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds that--
            (1) more than 4,400 traditional gun shows are held annually 
        across the United States, attracting thousands of attendees per 
        show and hundreds of Federal firearms licensees and nonlicensed 
        firearms sellers;
            (2) traditional gun shows, as well as flea markets and 
        other organized events, at which a large number of firearms are 
        offered for sale by Federal firearms licensees and nonlicensed 
        firearms sellers, form a significant part of the national 
        firearms market;
            (3) firearms and ammunition that are exhibited or offered 
        for sale or exchange at gun shows, flea markets, and other 
        organized events move easily in and substantially affect 
        interstate commerce;
            (4) in fact, even before a firearm is exhibited or offered 
        for sale or exchange at a gun show, flea market, or other 
        organized event, the gun, its component parts, ammunition, and 
        the raw materials from which it is manufactured have moved in 
        interstate commerce;
            (5) gun shows, flea markets, and other organized events at 
        which firearms are exhibited or offered for sale or exchange, 
        provide a convenient and centralized commercial location at 
        which firearms may be bought and sold anonymously, often 
        without background checks and without records that enable gun 
        tracing;
            (6) at gun shows, flea markets, and other organized events 
        at which guns are exhibited or offered for sale or exchange, 
        criminals and other prohibited persons obtain guns without 
        background checks and frequently use guns that cannot be traced 
        to later commit crimes;
            (7) many persons who buy and sell firearms at gun shows, 
        flea markets, and other organized events cross State lines to 
        attend these events and engage in the interstate transportation 
        of firearms obtained at these events;
            (8) gun violence is a pervasive, national problem that is 
        exacerbated by the availability of guns at gun shows, flea 
        markets, and other organized events;
            (9) firearms associated with gun shows have been 
        transferred illegally to residents of another State by Federal 
        firearms licensees and nonlicensed firearms sellers, and have 
        been involved in subsequent crimes including drug offenses, 
        crimes of violence, property crimes, and illegal possession of 
        firearms by felons and other prohibited persons; and
            (10) Congress has the power, under the interstate commerce 
        clause and other provisions of the Constitution of the United 
        States, to ensure, by enactment of this part, that criminals 
        and other prohibited persons do not obtain firearms at gun 
        shows, flea markets, and other organized events.

SEC. 5252. EXTENSION OF BRADY BACKGROUND CHECKS TO GUN SHOWS.

    (a) Definitions.--Section 921(a) of title 18, United States Code, 
is amended by adding at the end the following:
    ``(35) Gun show.--The term `gun show' means any event--
            ``(A) at which 50 or more firearms are offered or exhibited 
        for sale, transfer, or exchange, if 1 or more of the firearms 
        has been shipped or transported in, or otherwise affects,

    (a) Certification Regarding Post-Conviction Testing and 
Preservation of DNA Evidence.--If any part of funds received from a 
grant made by any Executive agency is to be used to develop or improve 
a DNA analysis capability in a forensic laboratory, or to collect, 
analyze, or index DNA samples for law enforcement identification 
purposes, the State applying for that grant must certify that it will--
            (1) make post-conviction DNA testing available to any 
        person convicted of a State crime in a manner consistent with 
        section 2291 of title 28, United States Code, and, if the 
        results of such testing are favorable to such person, allow 
        such person to apply for post-conviction relief, 
        notwithstanding any provision of law that would bar such 
        application as untimely;
            (2) preserve all evidence that was secured in relation to 
        the investigation or prosecution of a State crime, and that 
        could be subjected to DNA testing, for not less than the period 
        of time that such evidence would be required to be preserved 
        under section 2292 of title 28, United States Code, if the 
        evidence were related to a Federal crime;
            (3) in cases where DNA evidence exonerates an inmate, 
        investigate the causes of such convictions, publish the results 
        of such investigations, and take steps to prevent such errors 
        in future cases; and
            (4) establish a program under which State and local 
        prosecutors shall conduct a systematic review of cases in which 
        a defendant was sentenced to death to identify cases in which 
        DNA evidence is readily accessible and DNA testing is 
        appropriate and to conduct DNA testing in such cases not later 
        than 18 months after the date of enactment of this Act.

grant made on or after the date that is 1 year after the date of 
enactment of this Act.

SEC. 6103. PROHIBITION PURSUANT TO SECTION 5 OF THE 14TH AMENDMENT.

    (a) Findings and Purpose.--
            (1) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
                    (A) Over the past decade, DNA testing has emerged 
                as the most reliable forensic technique for identifying 
                criminals when biological material is left at a crime 
                scene.
                    (B) Because of its scientific precision, DNA 
                testing can, in some cases, conclusively establish the 
                guilt or innocence of a criminal defendant. In other 
                cases, DNA testing may not conclusively establish guilt 
                or innocence, but may have significant probative value 
                to a finder of fact.
                    (C) While DNA testing is increasingly commonplace 
                in pretrial investigations today, it was not widely 
                available in cases tried prior to 1994. Moreover, new 
                forensic DNA testing procedures have made it possible 
                to get results from minute samples that could not 
                previously be tested, and to obtain more informative 
                and accurate results than earlier forms of forensic DNA 
                testing could produce. Consequently, in some cases 
                convicted inmates have been exonerated by new DNA tests 
                after earlier tests had failed to produce definitive 
                results.
                    (D) Since DNA testing is often feasible on relevant 
                biological material that is decades old, it can, in 
                some circumstances, prove that a conviction that 
                predated the development of DNA testing was based upon 
                incorrect factual findings. Uniquely, DNA evidence 
                showing innocence, produced decades after a conviction, 
                provides a more reliable basis for establishing a 
                correct verdict than any evidence proffered at the 
                original trial. DNA testing, therefore, can and has 
                resulted in the post-conviction exoneration of innocent 
                men and women.
                    (E) In more than 100 cases in the United States, 
                DNA evidence has led to the exoneration of innocent men 
                and women who were wrongfully convicted. This number 
                includes at least 12 individuals sentenced to death, 
                some of whom came within days of being executed.
                    (F) In more than a dozen cases, post-conviction DNA 
                testing that has exonerated an innocent person has also 
                enhanced public safety by providing evidence that led 
                to the identification of the actual perpetrator.
                    (G) Experience has shown that it is not unduly 
                burdensome to make DNA testing available to inmates. 
                The cost of that testing is relatively modest and has 
                decreased in recent years. Moreover, the number of 
                cases in which post-conviction DNA testing is 
                appropriate is small, and will decrease as pretrial 
                testing becomes more common.
                    (H) Under current law in many States, it is 
                difficult to obtain post-conviction DNA testing because 
                of time limits on introducing newly discovered 
                evidence. Motions for a new trial based on newly 
                discovered evidence must be made not later than 2 years 
                after conviction, and sometimes much sooner. The result 
                is that laws intended to prevent the use of evidence 
                that has become less reliable over time have been used 
to preclude the use of DNA evidence that remains highly reliable even 
decades after trial.
                    (I) Since New York passed the Nation's first post-
                conviction DNA statute in 1994, a number of States have 
                adopted post-conviction DNA testing procedures, but 
                some of these procedures are unduly restrictive, and 
                many States have not adopted such procedures.
                    (J) In Herrera v. Collins, 506 U.S. 390 (1993), a 
                majority of the members of the Supreme Court suggested 
                that a persuasive showing of innocence made after trial 
                would render the execution of an inmate 
                unconstitutional. The principle is no different for one 
                who has been sentenced not to death, but to a term of 
                extended incarceration.
                    (K) It shocks the conscience and offends social 
                standards of fairness to deny inmates a right of access 
                to evidence for tests that could produce persuasive 
                evidence of their innocence.
                    (L) If biological material is not subjected to DNA 
                testing in appropriate cases, there is a significant 
                risk that persuasive evidence of innocence will not be 
                detected and, accordingly, that innocent persons will 
                be unconstitutionally incarcerated or executed.
                    (M) Given the irremediable constitutional harm that 
                would result from the punishment of an innocent person, 
                a Federal statute assuring access to evidence for the 
                purpose of DNA testing is a congruent and proportional 
                prophylactic measure to prevent constitutional injuries 
                from occurring.
            (2) Purpose.--The purpose of this section is to prevent the 
        imposition of unconstitutional punishments through the exercise 
        of power granted by clause 1 of section 8 and clause 2 of 
        section 9 of article I of the Constitution of the United States 
        and section 5 of the 14th amendment to the Constitution of the 
        United States.
    (b) Application for DNA Testing.--No State shall deny a prisoner in 
State custody access to evidence for the purpose of DNA testing, if the 
proposed DNA testing has the scientific potential to produce new, 
noncumulative evidence which is material to the claim of the prisoner 
that the prisoner did not commit, and which raises a reasonable 
probability that the prisoner would not have been convicted of--
            (1) the crime of which the prisoner was convicted; or
            (2) if the prisoner was sentenced to death, any other 
        offense that a sentencing authority may have relied upon when 
        it sentenced the prisoner to death.
    (c) Remedy.--A prisoner in State custody may enforce subsection (b) 
in a civil action for declaratory or injunctive relief, filed either in 
a State court of general jurisdiction or in a district court of the 
United States, naming an executive or judicial officer of the State as 
defendant.
    (d) Finality Rule Unaffected.--An application under this section 
shall not be considered an application for a writ of habeas corpus 
under section 2254 of title 28, United States Code, for purposes of 
determining whether it or any other application is a second or 
successive application under such section 2254.

                appointed and their attendance at training programs, 
                and remove from the roster attorneys who fail to 
                deliver effective representation or who fail to comply 
                with such requirements as the entity may establish 
                regarding training programs; and

                    (A) reasonable compensation for actual time and 
                service, computed on an hourly basis, at a rate of 
                compensation that is comparable (subject to cost of 
                living differences among States) to the rate typically 
                paid to attorneys appointed to represent capital 
                clients in Federal court proceedings, except that the 
                requirement of reasonable compensation shall not be 
                interpreted to require a State to compensate counsel at 
                a rate in excess of the Federal rate; and
                    (B) reasonable reimbursement for the costs of 
                staff, investigators, experts, tests and other support

    (e) Factors.--In determining whether to include or maintain an 
attorney on the roster of attorneys who may be appointed to represent 
indigents in capital cases, an entity described in subsection (d)(1) 
shall--

        attorney--
                    (A) has been sanctioned by a bar association or 
                court for ethical misconduct relating to the attorney's 
                conduct as defense counsel in a felony case in Federal 
                or State court;
                    (B) has been found, after a final determination by 
                a Federal or State court, to have rendered 
                constitutionally ineffective assistance of counsel in a 
                felony case in Federal or State court; or
                    (C) has asserted under oath or in writing in 
                relation to 3 or more felony cases in Federal or State 
                court that he or she has rendered constitutionally 
                ineffective assistance of counsel, regardless of 
                whether a court found the attorney to have rendered 
                such ineffective assistance; and
            (2) if a consideration in paragraph (1) pertains, consider

        finding, or assertion.

                of the State;
                    (D) a plan for obtaining necessary resources to

obligation to match any portion of the Federal expenditure in the first

        does not maintain an effective system, he shall direct the 
        State to take such measures as he deems necessary to achieve 
        compliance with the terms of the grant and may enforce such 
        measures in Federal district court. A State may challenge the 
        need for such measures in Federal district court.
            (3) Enforcement suit.--An enforcement suit under section

                frivolous claims in State capital cases, with the 
                effect of unreasonably delaying or otherwise 
                interfering with the State's administration of its 
                capital sentencing scheme; or
                    (B) employs 1 or more attorneys who, during the

                        assistance of counsel in a felony case in 
                        Federal or State court; or
                            (iii) has asserted under oath or in writing 
                        in relation to 3 or more felony cases in 
                        Federal or State court that he or she has 
                        rendered constitutionally ineffective 
                        assistance of counsel, regardless of whether a 
                        court has found the attorney to have rendered 
                        such ineffective assistance.
            (2) Nature of the act.--If a consideration in paragraph 
        (1)(B) pertains, the Attorney General shall further consider

        and Senate Committees on the Judiciary, describing with
