TR’S “SQUARE DEAL”
• TR’s idea of “Square Deal” meant that all people would receive equal treatment from the government• One of his 1st challenges arose when coal
miners went on strike in PA• Roosevelt intervened when the owners
refused to give in to workers demands• In the end Roosevelt used an unbiased
arbitrator who granted a small pay raise to workers • He also established the Department of
Commerce and Labor to monitor the actions of business and workers
