Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Truman's Fair Deal proposals were aimed at expanding social welfare programs, increasing the minimum wage, and promoting civil rights. However, they were largely thwarted by a conservative coalition in Congress, which viewed them as too expensive and too socialist.

Therefore, the best choice is E, which accurately reflects the opposition to Truman's Fair Deal proposals in Congress.
