Progressivism

1. I would define progress as moving forward towards a goal or idea.
2. The 1890's-1920's was the progressive era because it was a time of change, prohibition, suffrage, and the monitoring of monopolies; it was an era of reforms. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progressive_Era
3. Issues associated with the progressive era are, Cities were growing fast and accommodating for the living environment and providing jobs was a constant struggle. http://www.spodawg32.net/files/articles/ProgressiveEra.pdf
4.
Women's rights(voting)
Tax reforms
Prohibition
Direct election of Senators
Health
Education
All of these goals are targeting fixing issues with society that people believed that by fixing them, America would become a greater place.
