A bill to clarify that individuals who receive FISA orders can challenge nondisclosure requirements, that individuals who receive national security letters are not required to disclose the name of their attorney, that libraries are not wire or electronic communication service providers unless they provide specific services, and for other purposes.

Summary: USA PATRIOT Act Additional Reauthorizing Amendments Act of 2006 - Amends the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978 (FISA) to allow a person receiving a production order (an order from the Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) or his designee (Director) to produce any tangible thing, such as a book, document, or record) to challenge its legality by filing a petition with a pool of three district court judges established by the Chief Justice of the United States for such purpose. Permits the filing of a petition, no sooner than one year after issuance of the production order, challenging any accompanying nondisclosure order (an order prohibiting the person receiving the production order from disclosing that the FBI sought information).

Requires the presiding judge of the pool to immediately assign a judge to conduct an initial review of a petition. Requires such judge, within 72 hours of the assignment, to make an initial petition review. Requires the judge to immediately deny such petition if it is frivolous and affirm the production or nondisclosure order.

Permits any order setting aside a nondisclosure order to be stayed pending review upon request of the government. Permits setting aside a nondisclosure order if there is no reason to believe that national security would be endangered. Establishes as conclusive a certification by the Director or the Attorney General that the setting aside of a nondisclosure order may endanger national security or interfere with diplomatic relations, unless the certification was found to be made in bad faith.

Requires upholding a production order unless it is found to be unlawful. Requires immediate compliance with the production order if the judge does not set aside such order.

Grants the Supreme Court, upon writ of certiorari, jurisdiction to review a decision. Requires any judicial review to be as expeditious as possible and all petitions to be filed under seal. Requires any court proceedings, upon request from the government, to be ex parte and in camera.

Amends federal criminal law, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Right to Financial Privacy Act, and the National Security Act of 1947 to require a person making a disclosure to identify to the Director or requesting official the person to whom such disclosure will be made or was made prior to the request, but permits withholding the identity of an attorney to whom a disclosure was or will be made to obtain legal advice or assistance with respect to the request.

Considers a library not to be a wire or electronic service communication provider for purposes of granting national security letters, unless the library provides "electronic communication service."

Makes this Act effective immediately upon enactment.

Act, is amended to read as follows:
    ``(f)(1) In this subsection--
        ``(A) the term `production order' means an order to produce any 
    tangible thing under this section; and
        ``(B) the term `nondisclosure order' means an order imposed 
    under subsection (d).
    ``(2)(A)(i) A person receiving a production order may challenge the 
legality of that order by filing a petition with the pool established 
by section 103(e)(1). Not less than 1 year after the date of the 
issuance of the production order, the recipient of a production order 
may challenge the nondisclosure order imposed in connection with such 
production order by filing a petition to modify or set aside such 
nondisclosure order, consistent with the requirements of subparagraph 
(C), with the pool established by section 103(e)(1).
    ``(ii) The presiding judge shall immediately assign a petition 
under clause (i) to 1 of the judges serving in the pool established by 
section 103(e)(1). Not later than 72 hours after the assignment of such 
petition, the assigned judge shall conduct an initial review of the 
petition. If the assigned judge determines that the petition is 
frivolous, the assigned judge shall immediately deny the petition and 
affirm the production order or nondisclosure order. If the assigned 
judge determines the petition is not frivolous, the assigned judge 
shall promptly consider the petition in accordance with the procedures 
established under section 103(e)(2).
    ``(iii) The assigned judge shall promptly provide a written 
statement for the record of the reasons for any determination under 
this subsection. Upon the request of the Government, any order setting 
aside a nondisclosure order shall be stayed pending review pursuant to 
paragraph (3).
    ``(B) A judge considering a petition to modify or set aside a 
production order may grant such petition only if the judge finds that 
such order does not meet the requirements of this section or is 
otherwise unlawful. If the judge does not modify or set aside the 
production order, the judge shall immediately affirm such order, and 
order the recipient to comply therewith.
    ``(C)(i) A judge considering a petition to modify or set aside a 
nondisclosure order may grant such petition only if the judge finds 
that there is no reason to believe that disclosure may endanger the 
national security of the United States, interfere with a criminal, 
counterterrorism, or counterintelligence investigation, interfere with 
diplomatic relations, or endanger the life or physical safety of any 
person.
    ``(ii) If, upon filing of such a petition, the Attorney General, 
Deputy Attorney General, an Assistant Attorney General, or the Director 
of the Federal Bureau of Investigation certifies that disclosure may 
endanger the national security of the United States or interfere with 
diplomatic relations, such certification shall be treated as 
conclusive, unless the judge finds that the certification was made in 
bad faith.
    ``(iii) If the judge denies a petition to modify or set aside a 
nondisclosure order, the recipient of such order shall be precluded for 
a period of 1 year from filing another such petition with respect to 
such nondisclosure order.
    ``(D) Any production or nondisclosure order not explicitly modified 
or set aside consistent with this subsection shall remain in full 
effect.
    ``(3) A petition for review of a decision under paragraph (2) to 
affirm, modify, or set aside an order by the Government or any person 
receiving such order shall be made to the court of review established 
under section 103(b), which shall have jurisdiction to consider such 
petitions. The court of review shall provide for the record a written 
statement of the reasons for its decision and, on petition by the 
Government or any person receiving such order for writ of certiorari, 
the record shall be transmitted under seal to the Supreme Court of the 
United States, which shall have jurisdiction to review such decision.
    ``(4) Judicial proceedings under this subsection shall be concluded 
as expeditiously as possible. The record of proceedings, including 
petitions filed, orders granted, and statements of reasons for 
decision, shall be maintained under security measures established by 
the Chief Justice of the United States, in consultation with the 
Attorney General and the Director of National Intelligence.
    ``(5) All petitions under this subsection shall be filed under 
seal. In any proceedings under this subsection, the court shall, upon 
request of the Government, review ex parte and in camera any Government 
submission, or portions thereof, which may include classified 
information.''.
