After the Civil War, populists primarily supported the interests of farmers and laborers, advocating for policies that addressed economic inequality and corporate monopolies. They pushed for reforms such as the regulation of railroads, the establishment of a graduated income tax, and the direct election of senators. Additionally, the Populist movement sought the coinage of silver to increase the money supply, which they believed would alleviate debt and stimulate the economy. Their platform aimed to empower the working class and challenge the political establishment.
