It sought to establish codes of fair practices that regulated prices, wages, and working conditions across various industries.

In the 1930s, the Supreme Court struck down key provisions of both the National Recovery Administration (NRA) and the Agricultural Adjustment Act (AAA). The NRA was declared unconstitutional in 1935 for overstepping federal authority under the Commerce Clause, while the AAA faced similar scrutiny in 1936 when the Court ruled that its agricultural production controls were unconstitutional. These decisions reflected the Court's resistance to New Deal legislation aimed at regulating the economy.
