Best Answer

Carrie Nation influenced Congress and pushed them enough so that they passed the 18th Amendment, which prohibited the manufacture and sale of Alcoholic Beverages. Many progressives worked to get it passed, including Carrie Nation, because they thought an alcohol ban would reduce poverty. They argued that liquor added to unemployment and violence. This movement was called the temperance movement.
