Question

which of the following best explains the supreme courts opposition to some new deal programs?
the court believed the programs overstepped federal authority by interfering in state matters.
the court viewed the programs as a necessary response to the great depression.
the court supported the idea of federal intervention in all industries.
the court considered the programs to be effective but too costly

Explanation:

The U.S. Supreme Court in the 1930s opposed some New Deal programs on the grounds that they exceeded federal power and intruded into areas reserved for state governments under the U.S. Constitution. The other options are incorrect: the Court did not see these programs as a necessary Depression response, did not support universal federal industrial intervention, and did not oppose them over cost.

Answer:

A. The Court believed the programs overstepped federal authority by interfering in state matters.
