- Background: While National Prohibition ended with passage of the 21st Amendment, Section 2 of the Amendment allowed the states to write their own laws governing alcohol; states that the “transportation or importation into any State, Territory, or possession of the United States for delivery or use therein of intoxicating liquors, in violation of the laws thereof, is hereby prohibited.” Subsequent decisions by the U.S. Supreme Court agreed that each state could regulate the sale of alcohol within its borders. While prohibition was repealed at the federal level – state and local restrictions on liquor continue to this day.
