Which project would have been most likely to be funded under the national Reclamation Act of 1902

History
1 answer:
WINSTONCH [101]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

A. A dam to divert water to a reservoir is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The reclamation Act was passed in 1902 and financially assisted  the irrigation projects for lands of West America. It covered thirteen lands excluding Texas. The act basically set aside the money received from the sale of less fertile and dry public lands to  construct and maintain irrigation projects. The irrigated lands would be sold and the money would be used for funding more such projects.  The act led to the created United States Reclamation service. Due to this act the western regions became major agricultural areas of the west. Many dams were built and those dams harnessed the water of Colorado, Columbia, Missouri and Rio Grande systems.

What was the significance of a number of conservative democrats changing their party affiliation beginning in 1964?
Vaselesa [24]
Democrats had been losing elections in what had long been considered solid Democratic territory in the South.  Lyndon B. Johnson, a Democrat who took up the presidency after John F. Kennedy was assassinated, had become associated in the minds of voters with the civil rights movement. The civil rights movement aimed to give black Americans equality.  This did not sit well with white voters in the South.  In the 1964 presidential election, the Republican candidate, Barry Goldwater, won the states of Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and South Carolina.  Nevertheless, Johnson prevailed and won the election.  But it showed conservative Democrats were willing to shift to the Republican party if they felt it more closely aligned with their views.
