The correct answer is D) establishing the direct election of U.S. senators.

The statement that describes an achievement of the Progressive movement in the early twentieth century is "establishing the direct election of U.S. senators."

When we are talking about the progressive movement we are referring to the active social participation of a group of Americans from 1890 to1920, that wanted to change some problems that the industrialization and government corruption brought. They basically aimed to fight political machines like Tammany Hall. Regarding Senators, the used to be elected by the state legislature, but in 1914, all Senators started to be elected by direct popular election.

Answer:

c. Believed he needed the support of Southern Democrats to pass his economic and social legislation

Explanation:

According to the historical records, President John F. Kennedy moved slowly in the area of racial justice because he "believed he needed the support of Southern Democrats to pass his economic and social legislation"

During the administration of John F. Kennedy, before his assassination in 1963, he wanted to effect so many changes in both domestic and foreign policies.

However, knowing that the Southern states most often do not support the elevation of people of color, and the fact that he needed the support of Southern Democrats to pass his economic and social legislation to make those policies a reality, he was slow in enacting Civil Right legislation so as not to anger the Southern states.
