The correct answer is B, as the statement is false. The Republicans controlled both the House and the Senate in 1948.

Explanation:

During 1948, the 80th Congress was in office. Its term of office lasted from January 3, 1947, to January 3, 1949. All members of the House of Representatives and one-third of Senators had been elected to the congressional elections in November 1946 and September, respectively, in the State of Maine. This resulted in a majority for the Republican Party in both chambers. However, the Democrats with Harry S. Truman presented the president. Its fair deal policy was largely blocked by the Republican majority in Congress. During the legislature there were some resignations and deaths, but did not change the majority relations. The congress met in the US federal capital Washington, D.C. The United States then consisted of 48 states. The seat distribution in the House of Representatives was based on the 1940 census.
