A. New congressional leadership was elected in 1994
a)
The main claim of the passage is that, by implementing Prohibition, the United States took a step that was much more extreme and permanent than any of those that had been taken in other industrialized nations in connection with alcohol. The evidence that supports this argument is the fact that such legislation was included in the Constitution and in federal law.
b)
A piece of evidence that would help support the argument in the excerpt would be a list of measures that other countries took in respect to the topic of alcohol consumption. This would allow us to compare different measures between countries more easily.
