how did president roosevelt show his support for the progressive movement?

Answer 1

Roosevelt WAS the Progressive Movement. Roosevelt was not a stationary sort. Restless driven perhaps concious his time was limited, Roosevelt was a Progressive which is why it is so hysterical when Republicans trot Teddy out as an example of a Republican. The other Face of the Party is Abraham Lincoln and he was also an outsider in the Republican Party!!!

As for Roosevelt, he lent his voice & written words to support of Progressive Causes, as a Civilian, as an Assistant Secretary of the Navy, as New York Governor, as Vice President and as President. And as President Roosevelt pushed through legislation 'busted trusts,' established rules for foods & medicine, a who laundry list. Will now resort to links and snippets of info, the first is a great time line with cool photos,,,,,,

Please note that one of Theordore's first acts as President was to invite Booker T Washington to the White House, to this day the Stars & Bars crowd hates Teddy!!!

Answer 2

Many progressives, like Theodore Roosevelt, possessed a fundamental conservatism, fearing that the consolidation of power and wealth in the hands of private interests threatened the morality and stability of the nation. Roosevelt's aim was not to restructure American capitalism but to protect it from its own excesses through prudent government intervention. In enforcing federal antitrust laws, Roosevelt drew a distinction between good trusts and bad trusts. [Trusts were large corporations that controlled a substantial share of the market. In 1901 Roosevelt proclaimed that "extreme care must be taken not to interfere with [business] in a spirit of rashness . . . . Combination and concentration should be, not prohibited, but supervised and within reasonable limits controlled." In 1902 Roosevelt's Attorney General, Philander Knox, took on J. P. Morgan's Northern Securities Company for violating the Sherman Antitrust Act. After a two-year battle through the federal court system, the giant railroad trust was busted in U.S. v. Northern Securities Company. Roosevelt's administration initiated antitrust proceedings against over 40 more corporations (including the Swift & Company beef trust, Standard Oil, and the American Tobacco Company).
In an even more startling display of presidential initiative, Roosevelt intervened in the 1902 anthracite coal strike.As the coal strike illustrates, Roosevelt saw himself as a mediator and a custodian of the national interest. He vigorously fought for tougher regulation of railroad practices (the Elkins Act of 1903 and the Hepburn Railway Act of 1906), consumer products (Pure Food and Drug Act and the Meat Inspection Act of 1906), and conservation of natural resources. Roosevelt viewed the presidency as a "bully pulpit" and he actively campaigned not only for votes and legislation, but also to educate the public. He gave more speeches [and wrote more articles and books for publication] than any American president prior to his cousin Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1932-45). For his time, TR had a remarkably farsighted appreciation of natural resources. A lifelong outdoorsman (rancher, hunter, bird-watcher, explorer), Roosevelt used executive orders to by-pass Congress and saved over 170 million acres of timberland ("I hate a man who would skin the land," he declared). He created fifty wildlife refuges, approved five new national parks, and began the designation of natural national monuments such as the Grand Canyon. Some historians cite conservation as his most important achievement in domestic affairs.

all election campaigns are consistent with grants and there are no longer to any extent further any ensures. Republicans are chucking up the sponge in the event that they're ignoring the Latino electorate, in spite of the undemanding actuality that republicans do tend to take a much better conservative recommendations-set than the Democrats to immigration regulation by ability of making use of diverse function of their values
