President William Howard Taft did not support tariff reform to the extent that many progressives desired, as he signed the Payne-Aldrich Tariff, which raised certain tariffs rather than lowering them. He also lacked strong support for labor rights and progressive social reforms, often siding with conservative Republicans. Additionally, Taft was not in favor of aggressive antitrust actions, which disappointed many reformers who expected a more vigorous approach similar to that of his predecessor, Theodore Roosevelt.
Progressives were angered by the passage of the Payne-Aldrich Tariff because it raised certain tariffs instead of lowering them, which contradicted their goals of reducing tariffs to promote fair competition and lower consumer prices. They viewed it as a betrayal by President Taft, who had campaigned on a platform of tariff reform.

The perceived failure to enact meaningful reform fueled discontent within the progressive movement.
