Content: Second New Deal Programs
Thanks in large part to the various programs of the New Deal, the first two years of the Roosevelt presidency saw a large decrease in the unemployment rate and a stabilizing of the banks. But in 1935, Roosevelt decided to be more aggressive in his programs and policies, creating a Second New Deal. This was due in part to his concern of the Supreme Court eliminating programs, as they had begun to do. This is how many government programs that have survived to this day came into being. New Deal Programs: 1935
The most notable New Deal program, and one that has survived for nearly a full century now, is the Social Security Act. Signed in August 1935, the act created a retirement pension system for elderly Americans, as well as various social safety net programs for struggling citizens, such as unemployment and welfare. Another program that still exists (though nowhere near as strong in its current state) is the National Labor Relations Act, more colloquially known as the Wagner Act. Creating the National Labor Relations Board, this act was meant to make it easier for employees to improve their working conditions, including by organizing and unionizing, strengthening workforces as employment numbers grew. The Soil Conservation Act was another New Deal program centered around conservation and the environment.
