The Prohibition Amendment, known as the 18th Amendment, was repealed primarily due to its failure to effectively eliminate alcohol consumption and the rise of illegal activities, such as bootlegging and organized crime. The negative social and economic impacts of Prohibition, including lost tax revenue and the burden on law enforcement, further fueled public discontent. In 1933, the 21st Amendment was ratified, officially ending Prohibition and allowing for the regulation and taxation of alcohol.
