Hi there!
Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR) aroused opposition from different groups of people many times throughout his time as president. Controversial programs such as the New Deal programs are one such example. However, nothing aroused as much opposition as his court packing plan. This plan, if put into effect, would weaken the power of the court by packing it with more people who sympathized with his views. He received heavy backlash from both parties in Congress as well as the American people.
