SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

This Act may be cited as the ''Secret Service Protective Privilege
Act of 1999''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS AND PURPOSES.

(a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
(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/
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.

SEC. 3. ESTABLISHMENT OF PROTECTIVE FUNCTION PRIVILEGE.

(a) Admissibility of Information Acquired by Secret Service
Personnel While Performing Their Protective Function.--Chapter 203 of
title 18, United States Code, is amended by inserting after section
3056 the following:

governments who, at the time and place concerned, are
being provided protection by the United States Secret
Service.
''(2) Secret service personnel.--The term 'Secret Service
personnel' means any officer or agent of the United States
Secret Service.
''(b) General Rule of Privilege.--Subject to subsection (c),

''(2) if the privilege is waived by the protectee or the
legal representative of a protectee or deceased protectee.
''(d) Concurrent Privileges.--The proximity of Secret Service
personnel to a protectee engaged in a privileged communication with
another shall not, by itself, defeat an otherwise valid claim of
privilege.''.
(b) Technical and Conforming Amendment.--The analysis for chapter
203 of title 18, United States Code, is amended by inserting after the

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

This Act may be cited as the ''Sunshine in Academic Admissions
Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

Congress finds the following:
(1) Citizens and taxpayers have a right to know whether
federally funded institutions of higher education are treating
student applications differently depending on the student's
race, color, or national origin, and, if so, the way in which
these factors are weighted and the consequences to students and
prospective students of these decisions.
(2) Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 codified this
right, forbidding in statute discrimination on the basis of
race, color, or national origin by federally funded
institutions, which includes nearly all colleges and
universities.
(3) This prohibition has largely been ignored by the
Supreme Court, which has allowed racially discriminatory
admissions.
(4) However, in Fisher v. University of Texas, the United
States Supreme Court in 2013 affirmed that strict scrutiny
should be applied to university admissions programs to ensure
diversity is not defined as ''mere racial balancing,'' but has
a compelling state interest to achieve diversity. The Fisher
case clarified that any such discrimination is only permitted
if it is necessary to achieve the educational benefits of a
racially diverse student body.
(5) Therefore, colleges and universities must reevaluate
their use of racially selective admissions policies. The costs
of such policies cannot outweigh the supposed benefits. If a
less discriminatory means could achieve similar results, the
discrimination is not permissible.
(6) In order to ensure that these limitations are followed,
colleges and federally funded institutions of higher education
must make public through annual reports their use of race,
color, and national origin, for admissions decisions so that
Federal and State enforcement agencies and interested persons
can monitor the schools.
(7) Additionally, college and universities must provide
evidence sufficient to demonstrate that any such discrimination
does not exceed the limits imposed by the Fisher case.
(8) Academic ''mismatch'' refers to a significant
discrepancy in academic qualifications between various groups
within a student body, and is encouraged when universities
lower their academic standards to artificially achieve a
particular composition.
(9) Mismatch works a harm because it sets particular
students up for lower than average achievement, higher dropout
rates, less competitive majors and, perhaps most damaging, a
disproportionately large student loan burden.

SEC. 3. REPORT ON CONSIDERATION OF RACE, COLOR, OR NATIONAL ORIGIN IN
STUDENT ADMISSIONS.

(a) In General.--Not later than 180 days after the date of the
enactment of this Act, and annually thereafter, each institution of
higher education participating in programs under title IV of the Higher
Education Act of 1965 shall submit to the Secretary of Education a
report in accordance with this section.
(b) Contents of Report.--
(1) Disclosure of consideration of race, color, or national
origin in student admissions.--The report shall include a
statement indicating whether race, color, or national origin is
given weight in the student admissions process of the
institution or any department of the institution.
(2) Additional disclosures.--If the disclosure under
paragraph (1) states that race, color, or national origin is
given weight in the student admissions process of an
institution or department, then the report shall include the
following information with respect to the institution or
department:
(A) The racial, color, and national origin groups
for which membership is considered a plus factor or a
minus factor and, in addition, how membership in a
group is determined for individual students.
(B) A description of how group membership is
considered, including the weight given to such
consideration and whether targets, goals, or quotas are
used.
(C) A statement explaining why group membership is
given weight, including the determination of the
desired level claimed and, with respect to the
diversity rationale, its relationship to the particular
educational mission of the institution or department.
(D) A description of the consideration that has
been given to racially neutral or less discriminatory
alternatives as a means for achieving the same goals
for which group membership is considered.
(E) A description of how frequently the need to
give weight to group membership is reassessed and how
that reassessment is conducted.
(F) An identification of the factors other than
race, color, or national origin that are collected in
the admissions process. If the factors described in the
preceding sentence include grades or class rank in high
school, scores on standardized tests (including the ACT
and SAT), legacy status, sex, State residency, economic
status, or other quantifiable criteria, then all raw
admissions data for applicants regarding these factors,
along with each individual applicant's race, color, and
national origin and the admissions decision made by the
school regarding that applicant, shall accompany the
report in computer-readable form, with the name of the
individual student redacted but with appropriate links,
so that it is possible for the Secretary of Education
or other interested persons to determine through
statistical analysis the weight being given to race,
color, and national origin, relative to other factors.
(G) An analysis, and also the underlying data
needed to perform an analysis, of whether there is a
correlation--
(i) between membership in a group favored
on account of race, color, or national origin
and the likelihood of enrollment in a
remediation program, relative to membership in
other groups;
(ii) between such membership and graduation
rates, relative to membership in other groups;
and
(iii) between such membership and the
likelihood of defaulting on education loans,
relative to membership in other groups.
(c) Public Availability.--The institution shall make the report
publicly available.

SEC. 4. RULE OF CONSTRUCTION.

Nothing in this Act shall be construed to allow or permit
preference or discrimination on the basis of race, color, or national
origin.

SEC. 5. DEFINITION.

In this Act, the term ''institution of higher education'' has the
meaning given the term in section 102 of the Higher Education Act of
1965 (20 U.S.C. 1002), except that the term does not include an
institution of higher education outside the United States.

Ex Output:
Sunshine in Academic Admissions Act This bill requires each institution of higher education that participates in a program under title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965 to submit an annual report to the Department of Education that states whether the institution gives weight to race, color, or national origin in the admissions process and, if yes, provides certain additional disclosures. The institution must make the report publicly available.
