Answer:

increase the size of the Supreme Court so that he could appoint justices who would supply rulings favorable to him

Explanation:

The US Supreme Court first provoked public protests when, in May 1935, during an unprecedented economic crisis, the NIRA (National Industrial Recovery Act), which entered into force on June 16, 1933, was declared unconstitutional. This act became part of the New Deal of Roosevelt to save the country. Like other laws initiated by Roosevelt and adopted during the first “100 days,” the NIRA was extraordinary, well thought out and had one goal - to prevent huge social shocks that could cause an economic crisis at any moment. It was no accident that he was enthusiastically perceived by both businessmen and ordinary workers and employees of America.

However, the laws of the “New Deal” were literally passed in the 'fire order,' with the procedure for adoption curtailed, so the judges of the Armed Forces had arguments to declare them incompatible with the US Constitution. In January 1936, the Supreme Court’s decision abolished the AAA (Agricultural Adjustment Act) system, which was designed to save and restore the country's agriculture - imposing a tax on firms processing agricultural products, which, according to the judges of the Supreme Court, was contrary to the constitution.

In total, from January 1935 to May 1936, the US Supreme Court declared 11 laws that were passed by Congress in 1933-1934 as unconstitutional. The most important changes introduced by the New Deal in the life of American society were threatened, which caused widespread discontent among the population. The actions of the Supreme Court were opposed by the organized labor movement of America. The "revolutionary situation" began to ripen in the country. The presidential election in 1936 was a kind of referendum in favor of the “New Deal” by Roosevelt, turning the Supreme Court into an object of sharp criticism from the indignant public. Under these conditions, on February 5, 1937, Roosevelt sent a message to Congress on the plan of reform of the Supreme Court, which provided for a significant expansion of its composition. Although Congress did not accept the draft, it became apparent that the Supreme Court could no longer remain in its original position. Soon, the judges of the Supreme Court recognized the National Act on Labor Relations as constitutional. In May 1937, the Constitutional Law on Social Insurance was also successfully tested for constitutionality, and in 1939, also the Law on the Regulation of Agriculture of 1938. In essence, under pressure from the public, a legal 'amnesty' for the New Deal's socio-economic reforms took place.

What caused the 2007 groundhog day tornado?
Ugo [173]
A deadly tornado event occurred across the NWS Melbourne County Warning Area within Lake and Volusia Counties during the early morning hours of February 2, 2007. A discontinuous swath of damage was observed from the town of Lady Lake (Lake County) to New Smyrna Beach (Volusia County) - a distance of over 70 miles. A total of 21 fatalities occurred within Lake County. Synoptic & Mesoscale Situation: East Central Florida was located in the warm sector ahead of an advancing cold front. Large scale lift was supported by a very strong jet aloft, with strong vertical shear evident from the surface to aloft, conducive for rotating thunderstorms and tornadoes. Instability increased overnight with temperatures and dew points increasing through the pre-dawn hours. A moderate threat of tornadoes was indicated within the Hazardous Weather Outlook. A long-tracked supercell thunderstorm traveled from Sumter County to the coastal waters of Volusia County during the early morning hours of February 2, 2007. Three tornadoes touched down along this track. Damage Surveys: The first tornado began near Wildwood in Sumter County at 308 am and crossed into Lake County, lifting east of Lady Lake at 325 am. NWS Melbourne issued a Tornado Warning for Lake County at 306 AM. Post-storm surveys indicated the tornado reached a peak intensity of EF-3 (155-160 mph) and had a track length of 16.5 miles. Eight fatalities were associated with the tornado. The second tornado touched down in rural Lake County at 337 am and impacted the Lake Mack area at 348 am before crossing into Volusia County and affecting Deland at 402 am, then lifted east of Interstate 4 at 410 am. NWS Melbourne issued a Tornado Warning for Volusia County at 352 AM. Post-storm surveys indicated the tornado reached a peak intensity of EF-3 (160-165 mph) and had a track length of 26 miles. Thirteen fatalities occurred in association with this tornado. The third tornado formed in eastern Volusia County to the east of Interstate 95 at 422 am and remained on the ground until 425 am when it reached the Intracoastal waterway in New Smyrna Beach. Post-storm surveys indicated the tornado reached a peak intensity of EF-1 (100-105 mph) and had a track length of 3 miles. Tornado scenarios such as this are classified as very dangerous, especially due to the threat of tornado occurrence during overnight hours when most individuals are asleep. A NOAA Weather Radio containing an alarm feature can be a life-saving device in these situations. Most tornado deaths in Florida occur in the early morning hours.
