Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is D because federal agencies generally require complainants to exhaust all administrative channels before bringing suit. This means that the complainant must first pursue all available remedies through the agency's administrative process before seeking relief in the courts. This helps to ensure that issues are resolved as efficiently and effectively as possible, and that the agency has an opportunity to address the alleged violation before litigation is initiated.
