Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

John F. Daly, Dept. of Justice, Washington, DC (Frank W. Hunger, Asst. Atty. Gen., Dept. of Justice, Washington, DC; Henry L. Solano, U.S. Atty., Denver, CO; and Leonard Schaitman, Dept. of Justice, Washington, DC, with him on the briefs), for appellant.

Patrick J. Riley, Sheet Metal Workers' Intern. Ass'n, Washington, DC (Walter C. Brauer III, Brauer, Buescher, Valentine, Goldhammer & Kelman, Denver, CO, with him on the brief), for appellee.

Before ANDERSON, and McKAY, Circuit Judges, and COOK, District Judge.


STEPHEN H. ANDERSON, Circuit Judge.

This appeal presents a single issue: whether exemption 6 or exemption 7(C) of the Freedom of Information Act ("FOIA"), 5 U.S.C. § 552(b)(6) or 5 U.S.C. § 552(b)(7)(C), prohibits the release to a union of the names of employees who work for companies performing government contracts.1 We hold that it does. We therefore reverse the grant of summary judgment to the plaintiff union.
