Question 87 • Crowley Credit Recovery Algebra II B

Read the passage.Thomas Jefferson, the third president of the United States, held a vision for the country that emphasized agrarian values and a small federal government. He was deeply invested in the idea of an educated citizenry, leading to his support for state-controlled public education systems. Economically, Jefferson was a proponent of free-market policies, but he was also responsible for the Louisiana Purchase, which significantly expanded the country’s territory. His governance style was characterized by a commitment to individual liberties and a cautious approach to governmental power and intervention.Franklin D. Roosevelt, often referred to as FDR, was the 32nd president of the United States and led the country through the Great Depression with his New Deal—a series of social programs, reforms, and public works projects.

FDR’s leadership saw a significant expansion of the federal government’s role in an effort to address widespread unemployment and economic hardship.
