Answer 2

Answer:

B) which initiatives should be cut

Explanation:

Parallel structure is when the items in a list or a series of statements all have the same grammatical structure. In the underlined section "the initiatives to cut", the section begins with an adjective and noun. The other sections of the list begin with what and how. The best revision also begins with a similar word to create a dependent clause.
