Answer: The correct answer is option: <u>A) Congress wrote regulations regarding its details.</u>
Explanation: The law cited above states that no covered employer can discriminate against a qualified individual on the basis of disability. It was written in Title I of the ADA and became effective on July 26th, 1992 and was for anyone with the age 25 and up. It protected the legal rights of people with disabilities but Congress wrote regulations regarding its details. Congress, the legislative branch of the federal government, has the responsibility of making and regulating laws for the nation.
Congress mentioned the following:
''The rights and protections under this chapter shall, subject to subparagraph (B), apply with respect to any employee in an employment position in the House of Representatives and any employing authority of the House of Representatives. In the administration of this paragraph, the remedies and procedures made applicable pursuant to the resolution described in clause (ii) shall apply exclusively.''
