National Recovery Administration



National Recovery Administration (NRA), government agency (1933–36) set up by the National Industrial Recovery Act to administer codes of fair practice for businesses and industries. By early 1934 the laboriously negotiated codes had become intolerably cumbersome, and in May 1935 the Supreme Court ruled the agency unconstitutional, although many of its codes became part of later legislation.
