What do FDR, the New Deal, and the Supreme Court have in common? All three were involved in a court case that granted a maid back wages, so she received the minimum wage at the time—a case in which the Supreme Court ruled in favor of individual workers. The resource includes a video, discussion questions, and background material to acquaint scholars the ins and outs of the case, one that still resonates today.
