It was Booker T. Washington, I believe.
President Roosevelt invited Sinclair to the White House to talk about The Jungle after reading it. The president then set up a special commission to look into the slaughterhouses in Chicago.
In May 1906, the special commission released its report. Almost all of Sinclair's horrors were confirmed by the report.
When President Roosevelt read The Jungle, how did he feel?
The nation was horrified when The Jungle was published. President Theodore Roosevelt ordered an immediate investigation into the meat industry after reading the book, despite privately telling Sinclair that he disliked the Socialist polemic near the book's conclusion.
The novel gained notoriety primarily due to its depiction of meatpacking facilities. A copy of his book was sent to President Roosevelt by Sinclair. Roosevelt ordered an investigation into the abattoirs, partially but not entirely influenced by Sinclair's bestseller. As depicted in The Jungle, unsanitary conditions were discovered by federal inspectors.
