Question

Which problem did the Pendleton Act help remedy?

A. The appointment of corrupt city officials
B. Unsafe working conditions in factories
C. Overcrowding in tenements
D. The lack of sanitation in urban environments

Answer 1

I believe the answer is A. The appointment of corrupt city officials.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pendleton Civil Service Reform Act provided for selection of some government employees by competitive exams rather than ties to politicians, and made it illegal to fire or demote some government officials for political reasons. I hope I helped, please correct me if I'm wrong!
