The Enabling Act (passed on the 23rd of March 1933) helped Hitler massively by effectively making him legal dictator of Germany.

The Enabling Act stated that Hitler was able to run the government of Germany for four years without the consent of the Reichstag (Parliament). The Enabling Act allowed Hitler to consolidate his power in the run up to him becoming Fuhrer in August 1934.

Hitler used the Enabling Act to abolish trade unions in May 1933 and later banning all other political parities in July 1933. The banning of trade unions meant that the workers couldn't organise an uprising against him and the banning of political parties made Germany a one-part state where it was very difficult to stand up to the Nazis.
