PROTECT Act

B.
Sexual Predators Act

C.
Civil Rights Act of 1991

D.
The USA Patriot Act of 2001

Explanation:

The Civil Rights Act of 1991 is a United States statute that was passed in response to a series of
United States Supreme Court decisions, which limited the rights of employees who had sued their
employers for discrimination. The Act represented the first effort since the passage
of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to modify some of the basic procedural and substantive rights
provided by federal law in employment discrimination cases. It provided for the right to trial by jury
on discrimination claims and introduced the possibility of emotional distress damages, while limiting
the amount that a jury could award. The 1991 Act also made technical changes in Civil Rights Act of
1964, affecting the length of time allowed to challenge unlawful seniority provisions, to sue the
federal government for discrimination and to bring age discrimination claims, while allowing
successful plaintiffs to recover expert witness fees as part of an award of attorney’s fees and to
collect interest on any judgment against the federal government.
Answer options A, D, and B is incorrect. These entire Acts do not amends Title VII of Civil Rights Act
of 1964.
The Prosecutorial Remedies and Tools against the Exploitation of Children Today Act (PROTECT Act)
of 2003 is a United States law with the stated intent of preventing child abuse. The PROTECT Act
incorporates the Truth in Domain Names Act (TDNA) of 2003 (originally two separate
Bills, submitted by Senator Orrin Hatch and Congressman Mike Pence). The PROTECT Act is codified
at 18 U.S.C. 2252(B)(b). This law provides mandatory life imprisonment of sex offenses against a
minor if the offender has had a prior conviction of abuse against a minor with some exceptions.
The USA PATRIOT Act, commonly known as the “Patriot Act”, is a statute enacted by the United
States Government that President George W.
Bush signed into law on October 26, 2001. The contrived acronym stands for Uniting and
Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism
Act of 2001. The Act increases the ability of law enforcement agencies to search telephone, e-mail
communications, medical, financial, and other records. It eases restrictions on foreign intelligence
gathering within the United States and enhances the discretion of law enforcement and immigration
authorities in detaining and deporting immigrants suspected of terrorism-related acts. The act also
expands the definition of terrorism to include domestic terrorism, thus enlarging the number of
activities to which the
USA PATRIOT Act’s expanded law enforcement powers can be applied.
Sexual Predators Act is enacted in United States in 1998, which prohibits and made illegal for an
Internet Service Provider (ISP) to knowingly allow child pornography to appear on Web sites. It is
necessary for an ISP to notify law enforcement that a Web site is hosted on its server, which contains
child pornography material. This Web site or the pornographic contents of the Web site must be
removed from the server immediately.
