Reformers aimed to stop the sale of intoxicating liquors in the U.S. primarily through the Temperance Movement, which advocated for the reduction or elimination of alcohol consumption. They organized campaigns, public lectures, and rallies to raise awareness about the negative effects of alcohol on society and individuals. Additionally, reformers pushed for legislative measures, including the enactment of local and state laws to restrict or prohibit the sale of alcohol, ultimately leading to the nationwide Prohibition era with the 18th Amendment in 1920.
