Women did not earn equal pay for the first time during WWII.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

During the times of World War II, mostly the men were deployed to join the military or the defense army. This deployment created vast vacancy in the employment arena, duly filled and undertaken by the women of those times.

They were given equal responsibility and work as the men with the same nature of work and working hours, but at a lesser pay. This created a feel of lesser equality and thus the equal pay struggle started with suffrage of women. Though it did not took a noticing effect until 1960s and as a consequence thereafter, Equal Pay Act was passed in 1970.

The Tyler and Polk administrations

Both administrations strongly supported American westward expansion.

John Tyler pressed for the annexation of Texas as a slave state during his administration (1841-45) and at the end of it, he signed a Texas annexation bill into law, which was admitted as a state in the first year of Polk's presidency.

James K. Polk, who ruled from 1845 to 1849, also supported American expansion to the point he led the U.S. into the Mexican-American War (1846-48) in which the U.S. gained what is today California and much of the present-day Southwest.
