… the United States Capitol Police is authorized to protect, in any area of the United States, the person of any Member of Congress, officer of the Congress, as defined in section 4101(b) of this title, and any member of the immediate family of any such Member or officer, if the Capitol Police Board determines such protection to be necessary...

… As used in this section, the term “United States” means each of the several States of the United States, the District of Columbia, and territories and possessions of the United States...
