which event of the early 1900s is evidence that upton sinclairs novel the jungle had an important impact on the united states? (ssush13a)
adoption of reforms in public education
passage of legislation limiting immigration
passage of legislation requiring federal inspection of meat
adoption of the 18th amendment establishing prohibition

Explanation:

For the first question, the American Federation of Labor (AFL) was a labor union. Labor unions typically aim to enhance workers' power, such as through collective bargaining. The other options (promoting steel - industry efficiency, forming an oil - business monopoly, providing services to new immigrants) are not typical labor - union goals.
For the second question, The Jungle exposed the unsanitary conditions in the meat - packing industry. This led to public outcry and the passage of legislation like the Pure Food and Drug Act and the Meat Inspection Act. The options about public - education reforms, immigration - limiting legislation, and Prohibition are not related to the issues raised in The Jungle.

Answer:

1. To increase the bargaining power of workers
2. Passage of legislation requiring federal inspection of meat
