Progressivism DBQ

If you had a million dollars to spend on the Progressivism Movement, and how the reforms took charge, how would you spend it? The Progressivism included both major political parties, it lasted about 20 years. Many large reforms were being debated and fixed during this time period of hard times. There were 3 major reforms that were included in this movement. These reforms were contradicted and underestimated, but some people thought otherwise.

At that point in time, women had no rights, they were forced to do whatever the stereotype was. They had no will of knowing what was in the meat they were feeding their children. They had no idea that their daily medications for their children were infused with harsh drugs such as heroin and cocaine. Little did they know, they started a ballot for women rights and voting. If women's rights were evaluated, there wouldn’t be such commission and hatred. The laws would slowly flow easier and better
