What goes in the blank spot?

Question

Started up in the early 1900s by Woodrow Wilson, the New Freedom Platform proposed "blank" progressive reforms. A few of those reforms included a smaller federal government, more regulation of big business and economic competition.

Answer 1

The blank spot can be filled with the word "limited."

So the complete sentence would read:

"Started up in the early 1900s by Woodrow Wilson, the New Freedom Platform proposed limited progressive reforms."

The New Freedom platform sought reform while still maintaining a certain degree of limited government intervention.
