The correct answer is B. The New Deal ended in 1938 partly because conservative opposition blocked new legislation.
Explanation:
New Deal is the name of the economic policy pursued by the Franklin Delano Roosevelt administration since 1933 with the goal of overcoming the large-scale economic crisis (Great Depression) that swept the United States from 1929 to 1933.
New Deal economic programs were conducted through Congress during Roosevelt's first presidential term in 1933-1936. Their goal was to alleviate the situation of the unemployed, restore the economy and reform the financial system in order to prevent the recurrence of the Great Depression. The Democratic Party, which supported the New Deal, expressed the interests of white southerners, ethnic minorities, and trade unions. The Republican Party was split during this period, some of the Republicans remained in opposition to Roosevelt’s policies, believing that it was contrary to the interests of business, and the other part partially supported it. Proponents of the reform formed the “New Deal Coalition”, which spoke in a united front until the 1960s, but from 1938 to 1964 the Congress was controlled by the opposition “conservative coalition”. As a result, many New Deal economic programs, such as the unemployed job placement program, were curtailed by the end of World War II.
