Answer 1

The Civil Rights Act of 1991 provides a foreign law defense that allows employers to be exempt from Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 when compliance would violate the law of the country where the workplace is located.

Step-by-step explanation:

The foreign law defense, under which an employer would not be required to comply with Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 if doing so would violate a host country's law, is offered by The Civil Rights Act of 1991 (option B).
