Identify the statement that can be used as a claim to support the author’s position.

Every state legislature should raise the age at which students can decide to drop out of school to 18.

Rhode Island passed a law that states students must be 18 or older to drop out of school.
Requiring students to stay in school when they have already decided to drop out isn’t fair to the other students or teacher.
Congress is discussing the issue of raising the age for students to drop out of school.
