The Populist Party primarily believed that currency reform would help solve U.S. economic problems. They advocated for the free coinage of silver to increase the money supply and combat deflation, which they believed would benefit farmers and working-class citizens by making it easier to pay off debts. The other options listed, such as savings banks, new policies on Native Americans, and renewed immigration policies, were not central tenets of the Populist Party's platform.
