The correct answer is "It created a controversy that influenced President Roosevelt to take action".

Sinclair's "The Jungle", aimed to win the hearts of Americans and lead their convictions towards socialism. However,<u> the biggest impact the book ended up having on the public, was its criticism of the meatpacking industry and exposure of their unsanitary practices</u>.

Although President Roosevelt was outraged at first, he ended up passing the Meat Inspection Act and the Pure Food and Drug Act to control the situation. In a public release he stated: "Radical action must be taken to do away with the efforts of arrogant and selfish greed on the part of the capitalist."


Hope this helps!

The texas legislature can override the governor's general veto with a ______ vote in each house.
PilotLPTM [1.2K]
With a 2/3 vote. If both the Texas Senate and the Texas House get two thirds of votes to override, they can override a veto and nobody can do anything about it. It's similar even in the congress of the federation, not just a Texas thing. This is called a large majority and it's that many people because it's usually about serious things that can't just be decided easily.
