Question

Did the New Deal programs permanently change the role of the federal government? (U3.5) TEKS - 16(E)(1 point) Responses True True False

Answer 1

True. The New Deal programs, implemented in response to the Great Depression, significantly expanded the role of the federal government in the economy and society. These programs introduced federal initiatives to provide relief, recovery, and reform, which established a precedent for government intervention in economic affairs and social welfare. The long-term effects of the New Deal have led to a more active government role in regulating the economy and providing support to citizens in times of economic distress.
