During the Progressive Era (roughly 1890s to 1920s), several significant laws were enacted to address social issues and promote reform. Key legislation included the Sherman Antitrust Act aimed at breaking up monopolies, the Pure Food and Drug Act and the Meat Inspection Act to ensure food safety, and the 19th Amendment, which granted women the right to vote. Additionally, laws such as the National Labor Relations Act improved workers' rights and working conditions. These reforms reflected a broader movement toward addressing economic inequality, social justice, and government accountability.
