Answer 2

Answer:

B) They provided funds for security.

Explanation:

The Federal government played a relatively small role in the staging of the 1996 Olympic Games. They did not help with the construction or with Atlanta's acquisition of the Games. They did, however, provide funds for security and safety of the games. Historically, this has been the role of the Federal government in Olympic Games that are held in the United States.
