The two correct answers regarding the steps Obama took in response to the Great Recession are:
- Extended health care coverage to more people - This includes parts of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) which aimed to expand health care coverage.
- Invested in energy and other industries to spur job creation - This is reflected in measures like the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, which included investments in renewable energy and infrastructure to create jobs.
The other options do not accurately reflect the measures taken by Obama during the Great Recession.
