Best Answer

The "first" New Deal dealt with mostly immediate measures of getting the unemployed back to work and providing welfare and recovery. As the Depression continued, FDR began to feel the heat of his critics, both left (Huey Long, Share the Wealth, Charles Townsend, socialists) and right (conservative businessmen, laissez-faire supporters, anti NIRA regulations). To combat these critics, FDR proposed a new set of economic and social measures to fight unemployment and poverty, and to provide real jobs to decrease the unemployment rate. Examples of the Second New Deal included the WPA, which was the major relief agency of the New Deal. It was to provide work, not welfare. The major new piece of legislation during the Second New Deal was the Social Security Act of 1935. It provided insurance for the aged, unemployed, and disabled and it was based on contributions by both employers and employees.

No. There was a first New Deal, which was first implemented in 1933 by Franklin D. Roosevelt; this was his effort to provide immediate emergency economic relief programs to remedy the economic devastation of the Great Depression. However, from 1934 to 1936, many historians refer to this period as the Second New Deal (though, it was all really collectively part of The New Deal). This "Second New Deal " began with the Wagner Act and also included programs such as the Social Security Administration, which still exists today.
