The OSAA requires membership in an association to insure training and knowledge, etc., in order to work games. The assignors are generally tied to the association.

Here's a link to the OAOA, a statewide assn. that has taken over a lot of what the OSAA used to do concerning its officials. This is on top of the locals. http://www.oreofficials.org/

How many states require a background check to get a license?
IL, FL yes.
WI no.

Trust me, the WIAA will remove the license of someone who runs into certain trouble with the law.
