Temperance Movement. The Temperance Movement was an organized effort during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries to limit or outlaw the consumption and production of alcoholic beverages in the United States. During the early nineteenth century, many citizens of the United States became convinced that many Americans were living in an immoral manner.
Sometimes called the First Reform Era, running through the 1830s and '40s, it was a period of inclusive humanitarian reform. The first statewide success for the temperance movement was in Maine, which passed a law on June 2, 1851, which served as model for other states.
