Answer 1

Answer:

a. the programs were being taken to the Supreme Court

Explanation:

Roosevelt overcame criticisms and fierce opposition to earn a second term by a landslide. His New Deal was working, and the economy showed strong signs of recovery. The attacks against him called him a communist.

However, by the time his second term started, many of the policies and legislation enacted to create the New Deal were being evaluated in the Supreme Court, and some had been overturned.

Roosevelt fought to put into place a second part of the New Deal, this time more focused on the legal guarantees for the policies he had created.
