In this task, you're given a statement and three sentences as choices. Your job is to determine the neutral choice based on your inference from the statement and your commonsense knowledge. The neutral choice is a sentence that neither agrees nor disagrees with the statement. Indicate your answer as '1', '2', or '3', corresponding to the choice number of the selected sentence. If sentence X agrees with sentence Y, one's correctness follows from the other one. If sentence X disagrees with sentence Y, they can not be correct at the same time.

Choices: 1. This reading would require the conclusion that Congress had intended for H-2A workers to only get legal representation when they were in the country. 2. This reading would require the conclusion that Congress had intended for H-2A workers to only get legal representation when they were outside of the country. 3. From a legal standpoint, most judges and legal scholars would agree that this is asking for chaos.
