The twenty-first amendment states...
Section 1. The eighteenth article of amendment to the Constitution of the United States is hereby replaced.
Section 2. The transportation or importation into any State, Territory, or possession of the United States for delivery or use therein of intoxicating liquors, in violation of the laws thereof, is hereby prohibited.
Section 3. The article shall be inoperative unless it shall have been ratified as an amendment to the Constitution by conventions in the several States, as provided in the Constitution, within seven years from the date of the submission hereof to the States by the Congress.
What it means to me...
This amendment repealed the 18th amendment, therefor ending the Prohibition. This amendment returned the regulation of alcohol to the states.
