To determine which option the Progressive Movement did not attempt to accomplish, we can analyze each choice:
A. Prohibiting the sale of alcoholic beverages - This was part of the Progressive Movement, which notably influenced the temperance movement leading to Prohibition.
B. Allowing citizens to vote directly for U.S. Senators - The Progressive Movement championed the 17th Amendment, which established the direct election of U.S. Senators.
C. Endorsing a progressive income tax on wealthy Americans - The Progressive Movement supported tax reforms that included a progressive income tax, leading to the 16th Amendment.
D. Granting 18-year-olds the right to vote - This was not a primary goal of the Progressive Movement. The voting age was lowered to 18 with the 26th Amendment in 1971, which is well after the peak of the Progressive Era (approximately 1890 to 1920).
Based on this analysis, the correct answer is:
D. granting 18-year olds the right to vote.
