According to the text, when Mother Jones tried to meet with President Roosevelt at Sagamore Hill, she was initially denied access. The text states, "When she first tried to see Roosevelt at his home in Long Island’s Sagamore Hill...she was stopped by the Secret Service." However, Mother Jones persisted and managed to convince the Secret Service to let her in. The text further explains that she "made her case persuasively; she had come from a mine-workers’ strike in Pennsylvania, and she had urgent business to discuss with the president." This evidence indicates that despite being initially denied access, Mother Jones was eventually able to meet with President Roosevelt at Sagamore Hill.
