The President can't accept or extend an invitation to join an international conference. This rule applies unless a specific law already allows it.
This section is one short, undivided rule. The Executive Branch cannot extend an invitation to, or accept an invitation to join, any international congress, conference, or similar event. The only exception is when a specific law already gives the Executive specific legal authority to do so.
