What did the temperance movement achieved its goals with the passage of?
The temperance movement achieved its goals with the passage of the 18th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution in 1919, which prohibited the manufacture, sale, and transportation of alcoholic beverages. This led to the implementation of Prohibition, which aimed to reduce alcohol consumption and its associated social issues. However, the movement's success was short-lived, as the negative consequences of Prohibition, such as the rise of organized crime and widespread disregard for the law, ultimately led to its repeal with the 21st Amendment in 1933.
Who were some important people during the Progressive era in the US?
The Progressive Movement in the United States was not started by one person or one group. The progressive ideas and ideals that were expressed in the early years of the 20th century go back to the ideas expressed by Jefferson in the Declaration of Independence. The Progressive Movement inherited ideas and reforms from such groups as the Mugwumps, the groups leading the Social Gospel movement, the women's movement which goes back to the 19th century, Populism, and even some socialistic ideas put forth in the late 19th century. Basically, the progressives saw ills in society at all levels of government--local, state, and national. They attempted to correct these evils and ills in various ways. The thing that made the Progressive Movement more successful than previous groups attempting reform was that the progressivies appealed to a wide variety of people and ideas. They included members of most political parties as well as the poor, middle, and upper classes of society. There were progressive businessmen, progressive politicians, and progressive individuals and groups. Another factor in the success of the movement was that there were three progressive presidents who pushed the ideals of the movement, and leading senators and representatives who helped create the public support for the movement's reforms.

Which best describes the success of progressives in the early 1990's?
In the early 1990s, progressives experienced mixed success, particularly in the context of the Democratic Party and broader social movements. While they gained traction on issues like environmental protection, healthcare reform, and civil rights, their influence was often countered by a resurgent conservative movement and the rise of neoliberal policies. The election of Bill Clinton, who adopted some progressive ideas but also embraced centrist and conservative economic policies, reflected both the potential and limitations of progressive agendas during this period. Overall, the early 1990s highlighted both the challenges and the evolving nature of progressive politics in America.
