The story behind this shirt

The National Industrial Recovery Act's business codes ran from June 1933 until the Supreme Court struck the law down in Schechter Poultry Corp. v. United States on May 27, 1935, about two years. Real GDP grew 12.9 percent in 1936, the fastest year of the recovery and the first full calendar year after the codes were gone, according to the Bureau of Economic Analysis's growth series. The front print says "NIRA lasted two years. Growth kept going." and, under it, the address of the New Deal page on this site, where the claim sits with its evidence, the best case against it, and the answer.
