Jane Addams and her colleagues fought for government reforms that aimed to address the root causes of poverty, inequality, and social injustice. They advocated for labor rights, women's suffrage, child labor laws, and regulation of working conditions. They also pushed for reforms in public education, housing, and social welfare programs to improve the lives of marginalized communities. Addams was a strong supporter of progressive policies and believed that government had a role to play in creating a more just and equitable society.
