Progressives primarily aligned with the Progressive Party, which emerged in the early 20th century as a response to the perceived shortcomings of both the Democratic and Republican parties. The most notable iteration of this party was during the 1912 presidential election, when former President Theodore Roosevelt ran as its candidate. Some progressives continued to work within the Democratic Party, especially during the New Deal era under Franklin D. Roosevelt, advocating for reforms that aligned with their ideals.

During the 1948 presidential election, southern Democrats, known as 'Dixiecrats,' chose to leave the party because of its civil rights policy. It had evolved from its earlier pro-slavery leanings to become more race friendly, and the Dixiecrats didn't like that. They wanted to start a new party that focused on states rights. The Progressives didn't bolt from the party, in fact, they were a separate party, when formed in 1946. The would eventually merge with the Democratic party.
The so called progressives did not only support graduated income taxes but demanded it in their platform. So did the Socialist party and the Democratic Party in the United States.

The Progressives did not bolt from the Democratic Party in 1948. They were actually an increasingly dominant part of the Democratic party in the 1950s and 1960s. The Dixiecrats bolted because the Democratic Party was becoming increasingly race-neutral (i.e. not racist). This alienated a number of southern Democrats (who called themselves Dixiecrats) who felt that their view of the South and the future of the nation could not be properly dealt with by a race-neutral Democratic party.
In the early 20th century, the big issue of the day was liquor. Progressives wanted the Prohibition of alcohol, while immigrants wanted saloons to stay open so they could get drinks.
