Answer: Temperance movement

Explanation:

The temperance movement, discouraging the use of alcoholic beverages, had been active and influential in the United States since at least the 1830s. Since the use of alcohol was often associated with such social ills as poverty and insanity, temperance often went hand in hand with other reform movements. From the 1850s onward, the temperance movement focused much of its efforts on Irish and German immigrants.

Temperance advocates did not always emphasize prohibiting the consumption of alcohol. But by the late 19th century, they did. The prohibition movement achieved initial successes at the local and state levels. It was most successful in rural southern and western states, and less successful in more urban states. By the early 20th century, prohibition was a national movement.

The Temperance Movement was a movement of primarily protestant white Americans who were worried about the influx of immigrants into the country. One of their biggest fears was that the drinking of the Irish and Germans would erode the Protestant values of the USA.
