(2) to ensure that the federal government plays a central role in enforcing the standards established in this act on behalf of individuals with disabilities.
The above section of the Americans with Disabilities Act:
explains who is to make sure the act is obeyed
explains that discrimination still happens today
provides the constitutional basis for the act***
states the primary purpose of the act
Ahhhh just submmitted the test- the third answer was wrong :(
The final answer must be "states the primary basis for the act".
It's the third one.
The above section of the Americans with Disabilities Act states the primary purpose of the act, which is to ensure that the federal government plays a central role in enforcing the standards established in the act on behalf of individuals with disabilities.
To determine the answer, we can break down the options:
1. Explains who is to make sure the act is obeyed: This option does not accurately capture the meaning of the provided section. The section does not specify who is responsible for ensuring compliance with the act, but rather emphasizes the role of the federal government in enforcing the standards.
2. Explains that discrimination still happens today: The section does not directly discuss whether discrimination still occurs today. While discrimination is a significant aspect of the Americans with Disabilities Act, this section specifically focuses on the role of the federal government in enforcing the standards, rather than highlighting the occurrence of discrimination itself.
3. Provides the constitutional basis for the act: This is the correct answer. The section emphasizes the role of the federal government in enforcing the standards established in the act, indicating the constitutional basis for the federal government's involvement in protecting the rights of individuals with disabilities.
4. States the primary purpose of the act: This option is incorrect because while the section does state the purpose of the act, it specifically emphasizes the role of the federal government rather than providing a comprehensive overview of the act's primary purpose.
