Answer 2

The correct answer is A. It was President Franklin Roosevelt’s effort to bring relief from the Depression.

After the Great Depression caused the economy to come to a standstill, something had to be done to kickstart local economies back into motion. This is what the New Deal did. The New Deal opened up opportunities for people to find work in community organizations and funded artists to expand their fields. The New Deal was different for each state and varied and increased the work that was able to be done by American citizens.
