Choose only the correct statements that describe efforts to reform society during the progressive era

This includes the Meat Inspection Act and the Pure Food and Drug Act. These helped to ensure that Americans did not buy tainted food or toxic drugs.

Besides protecting American citizens, the Progressive Party also focused on women's suffrage. This party supported the idea that women should have the right to vote in American society.
