Question 21 • OK-US History-Sem A-CR - 37454A

Which of the following best describes the connection between the 1933 National Industry Recovery Act (NIRA) and the 1935 National Labor Relations Act (NLRA)?

Answer
A
The Supreme Court declared both the NIRA and the NLRA unconstitutional, leading to violence between workers and employers.
B
The Supreme Court declared the NLRA unconstitutional, leading to tension between workers and employers.
C
The Supreme Court declared the NIRA unconstitutional, leading to the passage of the NLRA.
D
The Supreme Court declared both the NIRA and the NLRA to be constitutional, leading to stable relations between workers and employers.

Explanation

The Supreme Court struck down the NIRA in 1935, ruling that Congress had exceeded its authority. The NIRA had included protections for workers’ collective bargaining, and Congress passed the NLRA later that year to establish those rights through a new law. The NLRA was not declared unconstitutional; the Court upheld it in 1937. So the NIRA’s invalidation helped lead to the passage of the NLRA.
