As an American during the Progressive Era, I would have been most supportive of the Voting Rights movement. The direct election of senators and the extension of suffrage to women were crucial steps towards a more democratic society. By pushing for these reforms, individuals were able to have a more direct say in their government and ensure that elected officials represented their interests, ultimately leading to a more inclusive and representative political system. Additionally, granting suffrage to women was a significant step towards gender equality and recognizing the rights of all citizens to participate in the democratic process.
