Roosevelt to add more justices to the U.S. Supreme Court in order to obtain favorable rulings regarding New Deal legislation that the Court had ruled unconstitutional. The bill came to be known as Roosevelt's "court-packing plan”.

<u>Explanation: </u>

The main aim of the New Deal is to bring down the cut-throat competition in the industries and the role government to take equal responsibility in advocating for practicing fair practices and to control prices.

An agency has be formed that is called "The National Recovery Administration (NRA)" was a prime New Deal agency formed by U.S. President Franklin D Roosevelt in 1933.

Roosevelt's purpose was clear to form the ideological balance of the Court so that it would stop striking down his New Deal legislation and this was called Court-Packing Plan. As a result, the plan was widely and vehemently criticized.

"The National Industrial Recovery Act" of 1933 was declared to be unconstitutional in May 1935 because the court tribunal stated that the NIRA extended the lawmaking authorities to the NRA in violating the allocation of the constitution of such powers to Congress.

inn [45]

The thing that Americans could do in the late 1860's, as they debated plans for Reconstruction, to balance the demands of healing and justice is to define new relationships between African Americans and whites.

<h3>What is Reconstruction?</h3>

Its main focus was on bringing the southern states back into full political participation in the Union, guaranteeing rights to former slaves and defining new relationships between African Americans and whites.

The Reconstruction era, which lasted from 1865 to 1877 after the American Civil War, saw the country struggle to decide how to treat African Americans legally and to reintegrate the seceded states into the Union.

Restoration of the Union, reform of southern society, and adoption of progressive laws promoting the rights of emancipated slaves were the three main goals of reconstruction. It should be noted that the black voters were not allowed to bite before this period due to cessation of federal intervention in southern issues.

Therefore, defining new relationships between African Americans and whites will have been helpful.

What do you think was roosevelt’s Greatest achievement as president?
sattari [20]

In my opinion, the Lend Lease Act is an even great contribution by Roosevelt than anything, including the New Deal.

The Lend Lease Act enabled the US to get on a war footing prior to the United States' entry into World War II.

Without the Lend Lease Act, the US would have been attacked in December of 1941 and would have found itself without the tools needed to respond.

The US likely would have lost to Japan in the Pacific as a result.
