Answer to Question 1

C
This answer is correct because all bills that call for increases in federal income tax must originate in the House of Representatives, and the nurse's representative could direct the petition or the nurse to the appropriate chairperson.
Committees can send forward ideas for bills, but only the House of Representatives can originate bills that call for increases in federal income tax.
The party secretary would not be the appropriate place to send this request because bills that call for increases in federal income tax must originate in the House of Representatives.
The Senate cannot originate bills that call for increases in federal income tax.

Answer to Question 2

D
The FMLA could reduce turnover rates by reducing the role conflict a nurse (or any other employee) might feel when the interests of his or her profession or career compete against the interests of a sick family member who needs care.
Because this is a federal law, it is doubtful that this act would have a significant impact on employee loyalty.
The FMLA was designed to ensure that employees can take up to 12 weeks off and still be ensured of their jobs; it was not designed to reduce or eliminate sick leave.
The FMLA was not written in response to the penalization of employee illnesses but rather to ensure that employees can stay with an ill family member to provide care and still return to their jobs later.
