Question 4 • RMA FL-2100310-United States History Semester 2

Which of the following was a common goal of the Populists and the Progressives during the Progressive Era?

Answer
A
giving women the right to vote
B
government regulation of business
C
tax reform
D
establishing settlement houses

Explanation

Both Populists and Progressives sought greater government oversight of powerful businesses to protect farmers, workers, and consumers. Government regulation of business was therefore a goal they shared. Women’s suffrage and settlement houses were more specifically associated with Progressive reform, while tax reform was not as central a shared goal.
