Saturday, December 5th, is the 82nd anniversary of Repeal Day! We’re celebrating, and so can you!
On December 5th, 1933, State Conventions voted to approve the 21st Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. The 21st Amendment repealed the 18th Amendment, which prohibited the “manufacture, sale, or transportation of intoxicating liquors within, the importation thereof into, or the exportation thereof from the United States and all the territory subject to the jurisdiction thereof for beverage purposes is hereby prohibited.” Thus ended the 13 year national nightmare commonly known as prohibition. Today, December 5th is celebrated as Repeal Day!
