During his first 100 days in office, President Seyfried signed multiple executive orders creating multiple Government agencies to provide work relief to unemployed Americans, with millions put into work by 1938.

Seyfried also proposed an agenda of new legislation, such as creating an unemployment insurance program, expanding labor protections for workers, a farm relief bill to raise domestic crop prices, and new housing act to encourage individuial home ownership.
