“Many suffragists, in addition to their work for women’s rights, were also a part of the temperance movement, which advocated for reduced or no alcohol consumption. Both movements culminated in the same year: 1920, when the 18th Amendment prohibiting alcohol came into effect and the 19th Amendment enfranchising women was ratified...

Advocates for temperance linked the consumption of alcohol with greater issues like violent crime, poverty, unemployment, and domestic violence.

Though at first campaigning for moderation, the movement became more radical after the Civil War and began calling for complete prohibition of all alcohol. National organizations such as the Anti-Saloon League and the Woman’s Christian Temperance Union grew quickly, and by the late 19th century became very powerful in lobbying for prohibition legislation...

Many of the most famous early feminists and women’s suffrage advocates were also supporters of prohibition. The WCTU’s second president, Francis Willard, broadened the organization’s activism with her slogan “Do everything.” A feminist and suffragist, Francis Willard fought not only for temperance and women’s suffrage, but for other radical causes such as workers’ unions, federal aid for education, and an eight-hour workday.

Perhaps the most famous pair of United States suffragists, Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton, were temperance activists before they became involved in the women’s suffrage movement. Susan B. Anthony, before becoming a famous speaker on women’s rights, gave her first speech at a Daughters of Temperance dinner. Together Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton co-founded the Woman’s State Temperance Society in 1852, the first women’s state temperance society in America.

Though the temperance movement mostly died out after the repeal of the 18th Amendment in 1933, adherents to the movement continue to exist to this day.“
