(1 point)governors refused federal funds.a large number of congressional democrats opposed the new deal plans.the democratic coalition of voters abandoned the party.the supreme court ruled several pieces of the new deal unconstitutional.
Brief Explanations
- Governors refusing federal funds was not a major political challenge for Roosevelt around 1936; most states welcomed New Deal aid.
- While some conservative Democrats opposed the New Deal, the party largely supported Roosevelt in 1936, so this was not a dominant challenge.
- The Democratic voter coalition (including urban workers, farmers, minorities, and liberals) was strong in 1936, and Roosevelt won in a landslide, so they did not abandon the party.
- In the years leading up to and just after 1936, the conservative-leaning Supreme Court struck down key New Deal programs (such as the National Industrial Recovery Act and Agricultural Adjustment Act) as unconstitutional, which was a major political and legal challenge to Roosevelt's agenda.
