Certifications not affected

The Secretary of Labor may not, in the case of any State that amends its State law in conformance with section 1, withhold certification of such State under section 3304 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 if, with respect to the period of time to which such certification relates, the Secretary of Labor finds that the State law of such State would (disregarding any provisions of such State law as in effect or applied in conformance with section 1) otherwise satisfy the requirements for certification.
