Communications Commission shall each prescribe
regulations to establish procedures and criteria for
the expedited determination and approval of applica-
tions for authorization to provide interexchange tele-
communications services (other than services de-
scribed in section 102(c)) that are incidental to the
provision of another service which the Bell operating
company may lawfully provide. Before prescribing
such regulations, the Attorney General and the Com-
mission shall consult with respect to such regula-
tions, including consultation for the purpose of
avoiding unnecessary inconsistencies in such regula-
tions.
(E) In making its determination under subpara-
graph (D)(ii) regarding the public interest, conven-
ience, and necessity, the Commission shall take into
account—
(i) the probability that granting the re-
quested authorization will secure reduced rates
for consumers of the services that are the sub-
ject of the application, especially residential
subscribers,
(ii) whether granting the requested author-
ization will result in increases in rates for con-
sumers of exchange service,
and administer a competitive grant program to award 
grants to eligible organizations to carry out mail, tele-
marketing, and Internet fraud prevention education pro-
grams for seniors. 
(b) ELIGIBLE ORGANIZATIONS.—The Attorney Gen-
eral may award grants under this section to State Attor-
neys General, State and local law enforcement agencies 
and groups, senior centers, and other local nonprofit orga-
nizations that provide assistance to seniors, as determined 
by the Attorney General. 
(c) AUTHORIZATION OF APPROPRIATIONS.—There is 
authorized to be appropriated to carry out this section 
$20,000,000 for each of the fiscal years 2013 through 
2017. 
SEC. 5. SENSE OF THE CONGRESS RELATED TO NATIONAL 
SENIOR FRAUD AWARENESS WEEK. 
It is the sense of the Congress that— 
(1) there is a need to increase public awareness 
of the enormous impact that mail, telemarketing, 
and Internet fraud have on senior citizens in the 
United States; 
(2) a week should be designated as ‘‘National 
Senior Fraud Awareness Week’’;

H. R. 484 
To amend title 5, United States Code, to clarify the personal privacy 
exemption in the Freedom of Information Act. 
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 
JANUARY 26, 2011 
Mr. DEUTCH (for himself and Mr. GRIJALVA) introduced the following bill; 
which was referred to the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform 
A BILL 
To amend title 5, United States Code, to clarify the personal 
privacy exemption in the Freedom of Information Act. 
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representa-
tives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, 
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE. 
This Act may be cited as the ‘‘Personal Privacy Clari-
fication Act’’. 
SEC. 2. FINDINGS AND PURPOSE.

§552, requires a Federal agency to disclose records

piled for law enforcement purposes. The Act pro-
vides exemptions from this mandatory disclosure re-
quirement, including for ‘‘an unwarranted invasion 
of personal privacy.’’ 5 U.S.C. §552(b)(7)(C). 
(2) In AT&T Inc. v. Federal Communications 
Commission, the Third Circuit Court of Appeals ex-
tended 
the 
privacy 
exemption 
in 
section 
552(b)(7)(C) to corporations. This decision misinter-
prets the intent of Congress to limit the privacy ex-
emption to individuals, not to corporations. 
(b) PURPOSE.—The purpose of this Act is to respond 
to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals decision by clari-
fying that the intent of the privacy exemption in section 
552(b)(7(C) of the Freedom of Information Act is to pro-
vide a privacy exemption for individuals, not for corpora-
tions. 
SEC. 3. CLARIFICATION OF PRIVACY EXEMPTION. 
Section 552(b)(7)(C) of title 5, United States Code, 
is amended by striking ‘‘personal privacy’’ and inserting 
‘‘the privacy of any individual’’.
