Legal commentator: The goal of a recently enacted law that bans smoking in workplaces is to protect employees from secondhand smoke. But the law is written in such a way that it cannot be interpreted as ever prohibiting people from smoking in their own homes.
Summary
A recently enacted law bans smoking in workplaces.
The law was created in order to protect employees from secondhand smoke.
The law does not ever prohibit people from smoking in their homes, and it cannot be interpreted as doing such.
Notable Valid Inferences
The law does not protect people from secondhand smoke when they are in someone else’s home.
A
The law will be interpreted in a way that is inconsistent with the intentions of the legislators who supported it.
Could be true. While we know one way that the law will not be interpreted (it will not prohibit people from smoking in their own homes), we know nothing about how it will be interpreted.
B
Supporters of the law believe that it will have a significant impact on the health of many workers.
Could be true. We have no information about what supporters of the law believe, so we can’t reach any valid conclusions about that.
C
The law offers no protection from secondhand smoke for people outside of their workplaces.
Could be true. We know that the law protects people from secondhand smoke in their workplaces, and that could very well be the only place where it offers protection.
D
Most people believe that smokers have a fundamental right to smoke in their own homes.
Could be true. The stimulus gives us no information about what most people believe, so we can’t draw any valid conclusions about that.
E
The law will protect domestic workers such as housecleaners from secondhand smoke in their workplaces.
Must be false. The law doesn’t prohibit people from smoking in their own homes, and that’s the workplace of domestic workers. So it must be false that the law will protect domestic workers from secondhand smoke in their workplaces.
