Theodore Roosevelt’s Square Deal

Theodore Roosevelt’s Square Deal "Square Deal" embraced the three C's: control of the corporations consumer protection conservation of natural resources. Reflected Roosevelt’s Progressive policies Government responsible for the Nation’s welfare President plays a role in shaping legislation

“All I ask is a square deal for every man. Give him a fair chance “All I ask is a square deal for every man. Give him a fair chance. Do not let him wrong anyone, and do not let him be wronged.” -Theodore Roosevelt

Strike Mediation 1902 in Pennsylvania Had the federal government interfere in a strike because public welfare was threatened Mediated an agreement between the striking coal miners and management

Conserve Natural Resources Set aside forestland, water- power sites, and more land to be explored for mineral and water resources Created National Parks and wildlife sanctuaries

Regulating Trusts Roosevelt did not believe large corporations and trusts (monopolies) were bad- just the ones that abused the public and competition Sued 45 companies under the Sherman Anti-Trust Act Got the nickname “Trust-Buster” as a result

But, Who was the real “Trustbuster?”

Regulation of Transportation Strengthened the Interstate Commerce Act (ICC) of 1877 by getting the Hepburn and Elkins Acts passed These acts gave the ICC the power to set maximum railroad rates and made it illegal for railroads (RR’s) to give rebates

Protecting Health 1906- the Meat Inspection Act was passed which made canned meat safer to eat 1906 – Pure Food and Drug Act Required labels on packaged food Restricted what additives could be put in the packaged food

Increasing Federal Power The regulations of the Square Deal interfered with business to protect the public and ensure social justice. The conservation measures had the government setting aside resources for the future. How did one of these actions increase the power of the Federal government?
