EDITORS COMMENTS
This 1937 cartoon print titled "FDR & Congress" captures a pivotal moment in American history. The image depicts the Congress, symbolized by a donkey, kicking up its heels in revolt against President Franklin D. Roosevelt's court-packing plan. In this political satire, the artist portrays the tension between FDR and his Democratic Party-controlled Congress over his proposal to expand the Supreme Court. The scene is set with an early buggy representing America, covered in dust as it navigates through uncertain times. FDR himself is shown holding a riding crop, signifying his attempt to exert control over the situation. Meanwhile, members of Congress are seen defiantly rebelling against Roosevelt's New Deal policies. This cartoon reflects the intense debates and power struggles that characterized FDR's presidency during this era of economic crisis and political change. It highlights how even within his own party, there were dissenting voices challenging his authority. As a historical artifact, this print offers valuable insight into one of the most significant political acts undertaken by President Roosevelt during his tenure. It serves as a reminder of how democratic institutions can clash and resist executive power when faced with controversial proposals.
