The correct answer is C. Claim of policy
Explanation:
In language, a claim is a statement that expresses your position about one issue. Claims can be of different types including claims of value, claims of fact, and claims of policy. In the case of claims of policy, these address specific actions, and state what should be done. Also, these claims involve society, government or institutions.
In the case of "The death penalty does not deter crime and should, therefore, be abolished in the United States" this is a claim of policy because it is related to government and what should be done as the author claims "death penalty should be abolished".
