This multiple-choice question requires students to show the relationship between civic participation and civic goals by selecting a change that allowed more Americans to participate in civic life and influence public policy. Option A is correct because states began giving white males citizens who did not own property the right to vote beginning in the 1820s. This change allowed more citizens to participate in the civic process and influence public policy. It would be many years before both women and African Americans were also able to exercise this right. Options B, C and D are inaccurate because they are all rights previously guaranteed by the Bill of Rights.
