The statement that was true of the Progressive Era is:
The government took a more active role in regulating business.
During the Progressive Era, which roughly spanned from the 1890s to the 1920s, there was a significant movement towards increasing government regulation of businesses in response to the excesses of industrialization and economic monopolies. This included the establishment of regulations to improve working conditions, consumer protections, and the breaking up of monopolies.
