Although you forgot to include the portion of the speech, we can say the following.

That is why, one of the first things he did as US President was to create the New Deal, a series of economic programs and legislation aimed to help the poor and millions of Americans that were suffering because they had lost their jobs after the US stock market crash of October 19, 1929, the beginning of the Great Depression.
