This law requires a loyalty and security check before someone represents the U.S. No one may serve as a representative, delegate, or alternate for the United States until the Office of Personnel Management investigates their loyalty and security.

Before a person can serve as a representative, delegate, or alternate from the United States, that person must be investigated. The Director of the Office of Personnel Management must investigate the person's loyalty and security first, and the person cannot begin serving until that investigation is done.
