The "Square Deal" was a domestic policy framework established by President Theodore Roosevelt during his presidency from 1901 to 1909.

It aimed to provide fairness and equality of opportunity for all Americans, emphasizing three key areas: consumer protection, conservation of natural resources, and regulation of corporations. Roosevelt sought to curb the power of monopolies and ensure that the government acted as an impartial mediator between various interests, particularly labor and business. The Square Deal was instrumental in advancing progressive reforms, laying the groundwork for future legislation that promoted social justice and economic equity.
