The first person to start the movement toward prohibition in the United States was Frances Willard, a prominent leader of the Women's Christian Temperance Union (WCTU) in the late 19th century. She advocated for the temperance movement, which sought to reduce or eliminate alcohol consumption due to its perceived negative effects on society. Her efforts, along with others, laid the groundwork for the eventual adoption of the 18th Amendment in 1920, which established national prohibition.
