□ women were welcomed into jobs outside the home as they filled in for men who had gone to war.
□ african americans were given equal treatment in defense industries.
□ women and minorities got new and better-paying jobs.
□ immigrants from mexico were invited to the united states to help fill labor needs.

Explanation:

To determine the correct options, we analyze each statement:

1. "Women were welcomed into jobs outside the home as they filled in for men who had gone to war." - During wars (e.g., World War II), many men went to war, and women were indeed welcomed to take on jobs outside the home to support the war effort and the economy. This is historically accurate.
2. "African Americans were given equal treatment in defense industries." - African Americans still faced discrimination in defense industries during wartime. They were often segregated and not given equal treatment, so this is incorrect.
3. "Women and minorities got new and better - paying jobs." - Wartime labor shortages led to new job opportunities for women and minorities, and in many cases, these jobs were better - paying than their previous employment (or lack thereof). This is a valid outcome of wartime labor demands.
4. "Immigrants from Mexico were invited to the United States to help fill labor needs." - The Bracero Program during World War II invited Mexican immigrants to work in the US to address labor shortages in agriculture and other industries. This is historically accurate.

Answer:

• Women were welcomed into jobs outside the home as they filled in for men who had gone to war.
• Women and minorities got new and better - paying jobs.
• Immigrants from Mexico were invited to the United States to help fill labor needs.
