Answer:

The correct answers are 1, 3 and 6. The New Deal programs that are still in existence today are the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Social Security Administration (SS), and the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB).

Explanation:

-The Securities and Exchange Commission is the federal agency for the regulation and control of financial markets, established in 1934. The financial laws and regulations that regulate the financial market come from the principle that any investor, institutional or private, must have access to a minimum amount of information before buying and throughout the holding period of the securities.

-The Social Security Administration is an independent agency of the US federal government. It administers Social Security, a social insurance program for retirees, the disabled and veterans.

It was founded in 1934 during the New Deal by Executive Order 6763 of Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
