    During the Progressive Era, many state and local governments adopted initiative, referendum, and recall procedures that "gave the people more control over the government".

    Answer: Option C

    Explanation:

    The period of widespread social activism and political reform spanning the 1890s into the 1920s across the United States termed as the Progressive Era. The Radical movement's main goals were to address issues exacerbated by industrialization, urbanization, globalization, and political corruption.

    During the Progressive Era, many state and local governments adopted initiative, referendum, and recall procedures that "gave the people more control over the government". These reforms were targeted at generating wider political participation in returning power to the people and removing corrupt and strong power.

    The examples of progressive reforms are like Woman suffrage, Factory Safety Regulations, Restrictions on Women and Child Labor, Initiative, Referendum, Recall and Popular Election of Senators (17th Amendment) etc.
