Explanation:
The reason why the "Social Security Act" would be the correct answer is because this act is still used to this day. There are many people that are working that don't have the chance to get the right benefits for their situation and this was what the Social Security act was for. This act was very good for people that don't have access to insurance, especially during work. For example, if someone that works at a place where they drive a forklift, and the forklift breaks and the stuff falls on them, causing injuries, then they will have benefits from insurance due to the fact that insurance will cover them, and that is all because of the Social Security Act. Other benefits that the Social Security Act is still seen til this day. A lot of aid has been given to mothers and their kids to keep their health up, and people who are physically handicapped get things like handicapped parking spaces and etc.

Why the other answer choices are incorrect:
Answer choice "the Agricultural Adjustment Act" is incorrect because:
Some of these factors in the Agricultural Adjustment Act still exist to this day, but it is not the whole act. This act was active from 1933 until around 1938, which had to get provisions in order to keep it. The provisions removed a lot of things about this act. This is the reason why this answer choice would be eliminated.
Answer choice "the Works Progress Administration" is incorrect because:
This was known as a thing that was temporary. This was temporary because this really only helped people get jobs during the Great Depression, while today people could find countless jobs to apply to. This is the reason why this answer choice would be eliminated.
Answer choice "the National Industrial Recovery Act" is incorrect because:
This law was taken down due to the fact that it gave the president way too much power that doesn't match the "checks and balances" that were set in the Constitution. Congress felt like this gave the president to much power, and left the other branches without any equal power to the president. This law was declared unconstitutional. This is the reason why this answer choice would be eliminated.
