The 21st Amendment
[2023-03-11 03:51:45]
Prohibited by the 18 th revision of 1919 and enforced by the Worcester Act of the same year has made progress for ten years and results were mixed. A legislation to prevent it was declared and Congress decided to abolish the 18 th revision for a variety of reasons, such as a serious reduction in government revenue due to alcohol tax and a substantial increase in illegal acts.
Public opinion in the late 1920s opposed alcohol bans. This also extends to lawmakers shocked by black market, theft, "alcohol poisoning" acts, and other organized or other forms of crime arising from what is prohibited. On 20th February 1933, Congress approved the three parts of the 21st amendment.
Article 11 The revision to Article 18 of the US constitution is abolished
It is forbidden to transport or import any state, region or property in the United States in order to transport or use drunkards in violation of the law.
Article 1 Unless otherwise specified in the Constitution, within seven years from the date of parliament submission to the state, the provision will be approved by the treaties of several countries as a "constitutional" amendment, otherwise The clause does not work.
As with the revision that was abolished, there is also a schedule in the 21st amendment. Section 3 stipulates that if all approved operations do not complete in 7 years, Congress needs to start over from the beginning. The last section also explains the formulation of the Special Ratification Treaty with the sole purpose (the sole amendment so designed). The state is obliged and promptly approves the amendment. The first is Michigan, the third is Utah. Therefore, on December 5, 1933, the 21 th revision was passed, and the 18 th revision was instantaneous.
However, Section 2 of the 21st amendment transfers the enforcement of the alcohol law to the state and prohibits the importation of substances if it is prohibited by state law. As a result, the Federal government statement, which proved to have no legal enforcement at the national level, became a national statement and shifted the burden of enforcement to the state level. The result is a new income: liquor license
Despite the efforts of the Heber J. Grant church and the LDS church, the Utah Council helped to approve the 21st amendment, and Utah can be regarded as the 36th state to approve the 21st revision as a law Utah, it passed the day the state passed the amendment of the state of Pennsylvania and Ohio. All 38 states who decided to hold a meeting passed the amendment, and only 36 states (4 out of 48 states) were approved. Even if Utah does not pass it, it will become a law
In February 1933, the Congress proposed the 21st amendment to the Constitution, passed a resolution to abolish the 18 th revision and the Bolstead law. This resolution effectively simplifies the process as a one-count, one-balloting vote, rather than a state ballot, as the state protocol is necessary for the state protocol to approve the amendment. In December of that year, Utah approved the amendment and became the 36th state which gained the majority needed as a discontinuation. Since 1933, some states continued to be banned throughout the state, but bans were abandoned in all states by 1966. Since then, alcohol regulation in the United States has been largely dependent on the local level.
This is another simple fix that ended the ban in the US. With the support of the ban campaign, the ban was imposed through the 18 th revision. The 21st revision recognizes the severe failure of prohibition. The abolition of the 18th revision did not fully legalize alcohol all over the country. After the 21st amendment, many states decided to stick to the anti-drug law for a long time. This is called "dry method". Even today, there are some restrictions on when and where adults can buy alcohol. Other provinces may enact laws prohibiting alcohol intake unless the local government agrees to a referendum (vote) on this issue.
