    The correct answer is B Kennedy wasn't able to get much done due to opposition from Republicans and conservative Democrats in Congress

    Explanation:

    During the presidency of John F. Kennedy there were multiple international achievements through the establishment of foreign policies such as in the cases of the Cuban Missile Cries or the Bay of Pigs. However, in the case of domestic achievement, most of Kennedy's proposals were not approved in Congress especially by the opposition of southern Democrats and Republicans, who did not approve Kennedy's attempts to control organize crime and enforce civil rights. In this way, those who control the congress committees prevented Kennedy from implementing reforms and programmes.

    The statement that best describes Kennedy's domestic achievements during his time in office is the second one: Kennedy wasn't able to get much done due to opposition from Republicans and conservative Democrats in Congress.

    Kennedy had very progressive legislative programs and reforms in mind, but conservative members from his own party (most of them Southern senators) prevented him from implementing them. He proposed economic reforms, such as increasing the minimum wage and lower the taxes, as well as social reforms, such as providing medical assistance for the elderly and promoting racial integration in the schools, but unfortunately he lacked the support from Congress to fully carry them out - at least while living; after his death, a civil rights bill known as the Civil Right Act of 1964 was passed.
