Q: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

This Act may be cited as the ''Citizens' Protection in Federal
Databases Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

Congress makes the following findings:
(1) Many Federal national security, law enforcement, and
intelligence agencies are currently accessing large databases,
both public and private, containing information that was not
initially collected for national security, law enforcement, or
intelligence purposes.
(2) These databases contain personal and sensitive
information on millions of United States persons.
(3) Some of these databases are subject to Federal privacy
protections when in private sector control.
(4) Risks to personal privacy are heightened when personal
information from different sources, including public records,
is aggregated in a single file and made accessible to thousands
of national security, law enforcement, and intelligence
personnel.
(5) It is unclear what standards, policies, procedures, and
guidelines govern the access to or use of these public and
private databases by the Federal Government.
(6) It is unclear what Federal Government agencies believe
they legally can and cannot do with the information once
acquired.
(7) The Federal Government should be required to adhere to
clear civil liberties and privacy standards when accessing
personal information.
(8) There is a need for clear accountability standards with
regard to the accessing or usage of information contained in
public and private databases by Federal agencies.
(9) Without accountability, individuals and the public have
no way of knowing who is reading, using, or disseminating
personal information.
(10) The Federal Government should not access personal
information on United States persons without some nexus to
suspected counterintelligence, terrorist, or other illegal
activity.
