This Department of Transportation that we are establishing will have a mammoth task—to untangle, to coordinate, and to build the national transportation system for America that America is deserving of. And because the job is great, I intend to appoint a strong man to
ill it. The new Secretary will be my principal adviser and my strong right arm on all transportation matters. I hope he will be the best
equipped man in this country to give leadership to the country, to the President, to the Cabinet, to the Congress It is the second major
-tep in bringing our Government up to date with the times. Last year this Congress established the Department of Housing and Urban
Affairs. Today you bring 31 agencies and their bureaus, going in all directions, into a single Department of Transportation under the
guidance and leadership of a Secretary of Transportation."
- President Lyndon B. Johnson, 1966

Explanation:

the progressive era is a period of widespread social activism and political reform across the united states that spanned from the 1890s to the 1920s.[1] the main objectives of the progressive movement were eliminating problems caused by industrialization, urbanization, immigration, and political corruption.

the movement primarily targeted political machines and their bosses. by taking down these corrupt representatives in office, a further means of direct democracy would be established. they also sought regulation of monopolies (trust busting) and corporations through antitrust laws, which were seen as a way to promote equal competition for the advantage of legitimate competitors.

many progressives supported prohibition of alcoholic beverages, ostensibly to destroy the political power of local bosses based in saloons, but others out of a religious motivation. at the same time, women's suffrage was promoted to bring a "purer" female vote into the arena.a third theme was building an efficiency movement in every sector that could identify old ways that needed modernizing, and bring to bear scientific, medical and engineering solutions; a key part of the efficiency movement was scientific management, or "taylorism".
