The Privileges and Immunities Clause, found in Article IV, Section 2, Clause 1 of the U.S. Constitution, prevents a state from treating citizens of other states in a discriminatory manner. It aims to promote equality among states by ensuring that citizens of each state are treated equally and fairly when they move to or engage in activities in other states. Alabama's requirement for nonresidents to pass a loyalty test before seeking employment discriminates against citizens from other states, thus violating this clause.
