(E) The law will protect domestic workers such as housecleaners from secondhand smoke in their workplaces.
Answer: E
Reason: For domestic workers, their workplace is at the homes of their employers. For these employers, the rule doesn't stop them from smoking at home. Hence, the law WILL NOT PROTECT domestic workers IN THEIR WORKPLACES
