The progressive reform that significantly enhanced direct democracy was the introduction of initiatives and referendums. These mechanisms allowed citizens to propose legislation (initiatives) and vote directly on laws or constitutional amendments (referendums), bypassing the traditional legislative process. This shift empowered voters to have a more direct role in shaping laws and policies, reflecting the progressive movement's emphasis on increasing public participation in government.
