What was it?  Prohibition in the United States was a nationwide constitutional ban on the sale, production, importation, and transportation of alcoholic beverages that remained in place from 1920 to  The prohibition was enforced by passing the 18 th Amendment of the Constitution and was later repealed by the 21 st Amendment.  Also known as the Volstead act.

The Effects of the Prohibition  The Prohibition caused more crime rather than reducing it ( the reason it was passed).  They had hidden illegal drinking spots called speakeasies. Even law enforcers would go against the act.  Gang violence rose because of the illegal production of alcohol.

Major Groups Involved  Women’s Christian Temperance Union: they believed the Prohibition would protect families from the effect of alcohol abuse.  The Untouchables: they worked to end Al Capone's illegal activities by enforcing Prohibition laws against him and his organization.  Al Capon: he was an American gangster that was against prohibition and became famous for his large operation of illegal production of alcohol.

How It Became Repealed  Because of the ineffectiveness of the Prohibition, legislative action was taken to repeal the 18 th Amendment.  In 1933 Franklin D. Roosevelt passes the 21 st Amendment of the Constitution which ended the Prohibition.
