Answer:

The statements are referring to the Work Progress Administration.

Explanation:

The Works Progress Administration, later Work Projects Administration (WPA), was a government agency in the United States that was started under the New Deal in 1935.

The total number of people employed in public works organized by the Public Works Administration (WPA) in the second half of the 1930s and early 1940s reached 4 million people. With family members employed in government jobs, up to 20 million Americans improved their living conditions. Over a million kilometers of roads and tens of thousands of bridges were built across the country. Almost every community in the United States has a school, bridge, or park created with the help of the Office. In the framework of the project, in particular, the President's suburban residence of Camp David (1935-1938), the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco (1933-1937), and the Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles (1933-1935) were built by the WPA.

During World War II, demand for labor rose again in America, so the project was discontinued in 1943.
