Which of the following was a progressive era reform
A. Abolishing slavery
B. Allowing women to own land
C. Pushing for civil right for African Americans
D. Direct election of U.S senators

Respuesta :

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The Progressive Era was a time between the 1890s and 1920s.

A is wrong because slavery was abolished after the Civil War ended in 1865.

B is wrong because during this time, women were mostly fighting for their voting rights, not the right to own land.

C is wrong because African Americans were more focused on the right to vote.

D is correct because many people wanted to reduce the corruption of the government in those days. They could do so by directly electing their representatives instead of relying on others.

Hope this helps!
