Both Socialists and Progressives sought to address social injustices and improve the conditions of the working class during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. They advocated for reforms to reduce the power of corporations and promote social welfare, emphasizing the need for government intervention in the economy. While Socialists aimed for a more radical restructuring of society towards communal ownership, Progressives favored more moderate reforms within the existing capitalist framework. Ultimately, both movements shared a commitment to enhancing democracy and protecting individual rights.

No, Socialists and Progressives have very different goals. Socialists seek to change the economic system of from capitalism to socialism. Progressives seek to reform the capitalist system to make it more just, without questioning the fundamentals of capitalism or challenging the legitimacy of private property and the profits system.
There are some similarities between reformist socialists (also known as Social democrats) and progressives in that both seek to destroy the monopolistic power of corporations and major banks. However, both philosophies have different ends: progressives want to retain private ownership of industries but regulate them to ensure they comply with the law, wheras reformist socialists ultimately have as their goal the abolishment of private ownership and capitalism to be replaced by public and cooperative ownership of the economy. During the early 20th century, both believed in the right of labor to organize and secure a decent salary and safe working conditions and both advocated government owned and operated local utilities and consumer protection laws.
There's a list of them, but generally it's communists, socialists, and progressives. The biggest party with that coalition are the democrats.
