The New Dealwas a series of programs, public work projects, financial reforms, and regulationsenacted by President Franklin D. Rooseveltin the United Statesbetween 1933 and 1939. Major federal programs and agencies included the Civilian Conservation Corps(CCC), the Civil Works Administration(CWA), the Farm Security Administration(FSA), the National Industrial Recovery Act of 1933(NIRA) and the Social Security Administration(SSA). They provided support for farmers, the unemployed, youth and the elderly. The New Deal included new constraints and safeguards on the banking industry and efforts to re-inflate the economy after prices had fallen sharply. New Deal programs included both laws passed by Congressas well as presidential executive orders during the first term of the presidency of Franklin D. Roosevelt. The programs focused on what historians refer to as the "3 R's": relief for the unemployedand poor, recovery of the economy back to normal levels, and reform of the financial system to prevent a repeat depression.[1] The New Deal produced a political realignment, making the Democratic Partythe majority (as well as the party that held the White House for seven out of the nine presidential terms from 1933 to 1969) with its base in liberal ideas, the South, big city machinesand the newly empowered labor unions, and various ethnic groups. The Republicanswere split, with conservatives opposing the entire New Deal as hostile to business and economic growth and liberals in support.
