The correct answer is C) It expanded funding for public housing and funded city rebuilding efforts.

After World War II, affordable housing in urban areas became increasingly difficult to find. This is why many families moved to the suburbs during the 1950's. However, due to the rate of homelessness in urban areas, President Lyndon B. Johnson wanted to change housing in urban areas. He did this by providing funding to business that meet a minimum quality standards. This increase in revenue to these programs resulted in more affordable housing for lower income individuals.
