    One of many reasons why FDR's first hundred days in office so extraordinary was because " b. He got an impressive amount of legislation passed in a relatively short period of time," since he took a very proactive role in the economy.

    b. He got an impressive amount of legislation passed in a relatively short period of time.

    Franklin Roosevelt set the precedent of the 100 Days legislation by passing laws to immediately address the impact of the Great Depression.

    During Roosevelt's First 100 Days, he passed legislation to address immediate needs of the people. He addressed the banking crisis and then began passing New Deal legislation to get money and jobs back. His goals was to have the government do the work of stimulating the economy until it was able to support itself again. With banks closing all over the country, that was his first priority.
