5. Describe what these three pieces of New Deal legislation did. National Youth Administration Rural Electrification Administrat
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

National Youth Administration: The National Youth Administration was a New Deal program funded by Franklin D. Roosevelt's U.S. administration, which focused on providing work and education to Americans aged 16-25.

Rural Electrification Act: The Rural Electrification Administration (Rural Electrification Act) was an act enacted to supply federal loans to install electrical distribution systems to serve rural areas of the United States.

Works Progress Administration: The Works Progress Administration was an American New Deal agency that recruited millions of applicants to carry out activities for infrastructure projects, including building public buildings and roads.

Explanation:

National Youth Administration: During the 1930s, unemployment was huge during that time (because of the Great Depression). This had an impact on the thinking of adults because they feared their societies would become even worse. However, other people sought change, and looked into how the youth could potentially help withstand the Great Depression. Especially educators; they worried that colleges would suffer long term damages without some type of financial assistance. Long-term unemployment would make the youth lose faith in democracy. Eleanor Roosevelt, who had connections with relief officers and educators, tried to encourage Franklin D. Roosevelt to combat this problem. At first, FDR didn't want to develop a program for the youth, until  how severe it became, that was when FDR considered action. He signed an executive order establishing the National Youth Administration (NYA) on June 26, 1935, a New Deal program specifically aimed at addressing the problem of unemployment among youth in the Depression-era.

Rural Electrification Administration: Around the late 1800s, electrical industries helped the domestic market of the United States of that time. However, adapting electricity to manufacturing and services further subjugated firms from having to locate near water, and with rising immigration from liberal naturalization policies, the pace of economic growth was accelerated. Although urban households and businesses gained significant amounts of electricity after the early 1900s, America's thinly populated rural communities remained largely lacking electricity and denied economic development. Because of its high infrastructure construction costs and the prospect of minimal immediate income, electrical service providers ignored rural sectors. From the provider's perspective, farms, rural areas, and businesses associated with rural environments were too isolated and offered too little demand relative to investment costs. This all changed when the market's failure to supply accessible electricity to rural areas. This eventually led to more than thirty rural power initiatives during the 1920-30s. President Herbert Hoover was the one that argued that rural areas needed electricity to end energy poverty. The Depression culminated in the failure of many state authorities and further raised the bar to deter foreign investment in rural electrical infrastructure. When FDR came into presidency, he already assumed the benefits of bringing electricity to rural areas, but it was Morris L. Cooke who gave rural electrification programs insight and guidance under the New Deal. With that, with the problem addressed on the federal level, FDR enacted the Rural Electrification Act in May 20, 1936.

Works Progress Administration: Unemployment in 1935 during the Great Depression was at a shocking percentage (at least 20% were unemployed). During the peak years of unemployment during the Great Depression, the WPA was enacted on May 6, 1935 for the unemployed so that they can work for the victims of the Great Depression.
