The correct answer is A) Family Assistance Act to provide direct monetary aid to families.

The legislation that was not a response taken during the Hoover administration in an attempt to turn the economy around was "the Family Assistance Act to provide direct monetary aid to families."

As the 31st President of the United States, he lived the beginning of the Great Depression of 1929. His administration failed to help create programs that benefited poor people that had lost their jobs due to the US stock market crash of October 29, 1929. After the crash, people lost their jobs, companies closed, and many banks went into bankruptcy. The Act that Hoover passed was the Glass-Steagall Act of 1932.
