Answer:

The 10 hour work day laws. The US federal government enacted a 10 hour work day in 1840 and New Hampshire became the first state to enact the law in 1847.

Explanation:

There were no hours limitations in work days so workers would work very long hours in the summer and shorter hours in the winter. There was job action to get Employers to spread the work evenly over the year.

There was provision in the legislation for workers to voluntarily work extra time so in real terms it did not limit the day to 10 hours. The legislation solidified the success of the effort.

This and other legal decisions that legitimized organized labor and strengthen their gains

Why do some people prefer ratifying conventions, rather than state legislatures, for the ratification of amendments?
EleoNora [17]
People believe that conventions created specifically for the ratification of amendments form better representations of the people's will. State legislatures can oftentimes be biased for or against a certain amendment for their own wellbeing rather than that of the people they represent.

One major historical example of this can be seen in the use of ratification committees for the ratification of the American Constitution; the Founding Fathers believed that certain state legislatures would not ratify the Constitution even if the citizens of the states wanted to, so special conventions were created to more accurately portray the will of the people.
