There were quite a few reforms in the Progressive Era. Just naming a few, there was the reform of living conditions a issue made apparent by Jacob Riis, a muckraker who helped bring changes to these conditions. There was also Upton Sinclair, another muckraker and author of 1905 "The Jungle" bringing the harsh food practices done by food distributers. This eventually lead to the creation  of things like the FDA, which helped stop those bad practices. This reform really helps us today so that people are getting safe to eat food.

Because of muckrakers like  Jacob Riis, Ida B. Wells, and Upton Sinclair where willing to raise awareness about working class difficulties,  a few reforms where set into place. some of these reforms are as follows: reforms against child labor, and food safety laws, reforms about corruption and woman's rights, minimum wage, work hours and work conditions. Because all of these problems where brought to light, things like the FDA and Work Unions became a thing. A lot of these types of things are still found in the modern day and because of the foul upbringing of the industrial revolution, we have been able to learn from our mistakes and better our society on our mistakes.

Some reforms made during the progressive era were: food safety laws, laws against child labor, 8 hour work days, more rights for women, and laws to stop political corruption. Because muckrakers like Jacob Riis, Ida B. Wells, and Upton Sinclair were willing to investigate these topics, people's lives were improved back in the Progressive Era and today. People's lives improved because food was made safer, women were able to vote, political corruption became less frequent, and there was more regulation of working conditions in factories. All of these reforms improved quality of life for everyone.

Some of the reforms made during the Progressive Era were child labor, minimum wage, womens rights, unsafe working conditions, pollution, political rights and more. Many workers were forced into a tough job that lasted multiple hours each day with no breaks. The work conditions were unsafe and very dangerous for anyone working. Some people who were helpful during the Progressive Era were Muckrakers, Unions, Knights of Labor and more. They were all a big help during this time. They made sure the Progessive Era didn't happen again today.

This connects to today because a lot of the womens rights has changed. For exmaple, women are now able to vote and have more freedom much more today than during the Progessive Era. Today, child labor is illegal and now kids are allowed to work at the age of 14 instead of 10. Work conditions are much more stable and safer. We should be grateful for the ones who fought for our freedom for today. We should thank the mucrakers. Knights of Labor, Unions, and more!

It's all thanks to these Muckrakers (and more) - Jacob Riis, a photographer, Ida B. Wells, teacher and journalist, Upton Sinclair, author of The Jungle.

How these reforms and muckrakers connect to today: Ida B. Wells fight for her right to vote, in the long run, has paid off! Women of all races/ethnicities are allowed to vote in elections, lynchings are a crime and aren't as common anymore, and segregation is abolished. Upton Sinclairs activism has paid off too, there are multiple food and preparation laws that prevent spoiled foods and goods being sold to the general public.
