Reforming Gov’t Elect reform Mayors and Governors – those w/ progressive ideas (Gov. Robert La Follette of Wisconsin) Protect Children – new laws limiting child labor Working Hours – SCOTUS sides with workers, limits work day to 10 hours Reform elections A) Ballot initiative & referendum – voters can place bills on ballot to be voted on B) Recall – voters ability to remove bad leaders C) 17th Amendment – Direct election of Senators (vote to the people not to State Legislature)

Women’s Rights one in five women had a job in 1890s Typical jobs: Office worker – filing, secretarial Nurse School teacher (K-8) Telephone Operator Maid, cook, seamstress (esp. African Americans) Women want suffrage (right to vote)
