The law that suspended the German constitution was the "Decree for the Protection of People and State," commonly known as the Reichstag Fire Decree, enacted on February 28, 1933. This decree was issued by President Paul von Hindenburg at the request of Chancellor Adolf Hitler in response to the Reichstag fire, allowing the government to suspend civil liberties, including freedom of speech, assembly, and the press. It effectively enabled the Nazi regime to arrest political opponents and consolidate power, paving the way for totalitarian rule.
