Answer 1

The conclusion that can be drawn from the statement is that without the necessary support from Congress or the President, attempts to avoid compliance with laws—such as those governing essential services—are unlikely to be successful. While the statement does not explicitly mention any of the specific services listed, it implies that suspending any of those services without proper legislative or executive backing would be illegal. Therefore, any of the options could be inferred, but without specific context regarding the laws governing each service, a definitive conclusion about their legality cannot be drawn from the statement alone.
