the admissions clause grants congress the authority to admit new states, but forbids the creation of new states from parts of existing states without the consent of the affected states. the supreme court has held that the constitution requires all states to be admitted on an equal footing, though the admissions clause does not expressly include this requirement. the property clause grants congress the power to make laws for the territories and other federal lands. the guarantee clause mandates that united states guarantee that all states have a "republican form of government," though it does not define this term. article four also requires the united states to protect each state from invasion, and, at the request of a state, from "domestic violence."
article four of the united states constitution
credit unions may typically be chartered to serve a specific employee or associational group or groups (often called a select employee group or "seg charter"), all members of a trade, industry, or profession (a "tip charter"), or have a "community charter" (typically a field of membership of anyone who lives, works, goes to school, or attends religious services in a particular city, county, or counties). when a credit union converts to a community charter from a seg charter or tip charter, it can continue to serve its existing members as well as anyone who lives, works, worships, or attends school within its new geographical field of membership, but cannot admit new members from its former seg(s) or tip (unless the group in question is located within "the new community credit union's boundaries"). similarly, a credit union that converts to a tip or seg charter from a different charter type can no longer admit new members from its old field of membership.
