prohibition
The 18th Amendment passed prohibition into law in 1919, making it illegal to produce, sell, or transport alcohol in the United States. This led to increased illegal alcohol production and consumption during the "Roaring Twenties."
The first dry legislation in the United States was the Maine Law, enacted in 1851. This law aimed to prohibit the sale and consumption of alcohol, marking a significant step in the temperance movement. Other states followed suit with similar laws throughout the 19th century, setting the stage for the nationwide prohibition that would come in the 1920s.
