Progressivism in the United States is a broadly based reform movement that reached its height early in the 20th century. It was middle class and reformist in nature.

In the 21st century, progressives continue to embrace concepts such as environmentalism and social justice. While the modern progressive movement may be characterized as largely secular in nature, by comparison, the historical progressive movement was to a significant extent rooted in and energized by religion.
