Answer 1

B. Urged the expansion of the welfare state

Step-by-step explanation:

The National Resources Planning Board (NRPB) served as the only national planning agency in U.S. history during the period of 1933 and 1943.

The board, which initially was involved in public works planning, advanced to broader social and economic planning.

During the period, the board urged an institutionalized policy planning process favouring the expansion of the welfare state.
