Explanation:

The Progressive Movement (late 19th-early 20th century) focused on addressing social, political, and economic issues. Group A's items align with key Progressive reforms: public health programs addressed urban living conditions, municipal reforms targeted political corruption, the 17th Amendment established direct election of senators (ending legislative selection), and initiative/referendum expanded direct citizen participation in governance. Group B includes pre-Progressive practices (legislatures electing senators) and less central Progressive measures.

Answer:

Group A

• Public health programs
• Municipal reforms
• Direct election of senators
• Initiative and referendum measures
