<em>C. To provide employment through federal deficit spending.</em>

Explanation:

Both the Public Works Administration and the Works Progress Administration were created by President Franklin D. Roosevelt. It was part of the New Deal, which was created in 1933 and was designed to help Americans during the Great Depression.

The Great Depression was an awful time in history, people were losing their jobs, homes, and could not afford basic items. When President Franklin D. Roosevelt was running for office, he would famously say, "<em>I pledge you, I pledge myself, to a new deal for the American people</em>." He wanted to create programs and opportunities for people during the Great Depression, he called the series of programs and projects the New Deal.

Two of the programs that were implemented with the New Deal were the Public Works Administration and the Works Progress Administration. Both of these were designed to give Americans jobs and put money in the hands of the people.
