New Deal Programs • National Industry Recovery Act (NIRA): government completely regulates business • NRA (National Recovery Administration) oversees it • Works Progress Administration (WPA): puts Americans to work on public projects • Agricultural Adjustment Administration (AAA): helps farmers by reducing production and raising prices • Wagner Act: pro-Union law to provide workers with better wages and jobs • Civilian Conservation Corps(CCC): pays people to plant trees and preserve the environment
Success or Failure? • New Deal is incredibly controversial • Initially rejected by the Supreme Court because it regulated society “beyond the powers given to the Federal Government” • FDR’s Court Packing Plan • Attempt to pass a law allowing FDR to add more judges to the Supreme Court • Result: Plan fails, but Supreme Court stops criticizing New Deal
