Answer:

The correct answer is option B. "Putting people to work".

Step-by-step explanation:

When President Franklin Roosevelt realized that fighting unemployment was the greatest task facing the nation, he put his administration to give immediately aid to people in need. Roosevelt adopted the strategy of "priming the pump" giving federal money to boost the companies' economy and generate employment. The first effort was The Federal Emergency Relief Act, that gave 3 billion dollars to state and local governments for direct relief payments in 1933.
