This is OG 12th ed SC Q133. I was able to narrow down the choices to B and E. However, I did not understand the reasoning provided in OG for the correct answer (B). I have listed my reasoning for incorrect choice (E). Please correct me if I'm wrong.
"To require" in choice (E) does not refer to "laws". Its subject is probably "shrimpers".

Q133. Last week local shrimpers held a news conference to take some credit for the

requiring that turtle-excluder devices be on shrimp nets protect adult sea turtles.
(B) requiring turtle-excluder devices on shrimp nets is protecting
(E) to require turtle-excluder devices on shrimp nets is protecting
