HELP New employer preforming periodic credit and/or criminal background checks?

Hi any advice on this? I am currently a government contractor contracted to a federal agency. The company I work for contract recently ended. I will still be contracted to this government agency the only difference is who signs my paychecks. I just received the offer letter and part of the offer letter states that when signing I am agreeing to them performing periodic credit or criminal background checks no less than once per calendar year. I have never had an offer letter say some thing like this before and I don’t think I feel comfortable with my employer being able to do credit checks on me whenever they want. Does anyone have any similar stories or advice on what I should do? Ps I hold a public trust clearance as well so I really don’t understand why this is necessary.
