The 19th Amendment to the US Constitution could be considered a "Progressive" amendment because it allowed women country-wide the right to vote.

Progressive amendments typically better quality of life for minorities and the oppressed, which are often shared. This new right to vote for women (the minority/oppressed in this case) qualifies it as progressive.

Hope I could help!
