• More support for progressive changes politically and in the workforce

Explanation:

Irish immigration to America after 1846 was overwhelmingly Catholic. By far most of those that had arrived recently had been Protestants or Presbyterians and had immediately acclimatized, not least since English was their first language, and most (yet absolutely not all) had aptitudes and maybe some little investment funds on which to begin to assemble another life. Very soon they had turned out to be autonomous and prosperous.
