Answer 2

What do you think?

Answer 3

I don't really know much about the second one so I'm not sure.

Answer 4

"The "Second New Deal" in 1935–38 included the Wagner Act to promote labor unions, the Works Progress Administration (WPA) relief program (which made the federal government by far the largest single employer in the nation),[6] the Social Security Act, and new programs to aid tenant farmers and migrant workers. The final major items of New Deal legislation were the creation of the United States Housing Authority and Farm Security Administration, both in 1937, and the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, which set maximum hours and minimum wages for most categories of workers." ~ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Deal

Answer 5

So I'd say the Second New Deal mostly dealt with jobs and making life better for workers and unemployed people.

Answer 6

so that would be either C or D, right?

Answer 7

I believe so, yes.

Answer 8

which do you think fits better because I'm not sure.. they both seem pretty right to me.

Answer 9

D seems to make more sense, since you said the Second New Deal dealt with jobs.

Answer 10

Wait, no, ignore that...

Answer 11

It's actually C, because the first New Deal didn't deal with JUST banking reform.

Answer 12

Thanks.

Answer 13
