Explanation
The Civil Rights Act of 1991 directly amended the Civil Rights Act of 1964. It made technical and substantive changes including: extending the time allowed to challenge unlawful seniority systems, allowing employees to sue the federal government for employment discrimination, and clarifying timelines for age discrimination claims under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA). The PROTECT Act addresses child exploitation, the USA PATRIOT Act addresses terrorism, and 'Sexual Predators Act' is not a major federal statute in this context.
