The History and Impact of Prohibition on the United States and Wyoming
2026-02-10 11:00 - 13:00 | Historic Supreme Court, Wyoming State Capitol, 200 W 24th St, Cheyenne, Wyoming, 82001, United States
The Cheyenne League of Women Voters will join the Wyoming Supreme Court on February 10 as part of the state’s recognition of the 250th anniversary of the nation’s founding. Following two oral arguments, the League will offer a presentation on the history and impact of Prohibition in both the United States and Wyoming.

Often described as a “grand social experiment that failed,” Prohibition lasted nearly 14 years and reshaped American culture in unexpected ways. The League’s program, developed by Cheyenne League member Mary Guthrie, aims to deliver an engaging and informative look at this turbulent chapter in legal and social history. Anna Bechtel, Bonnie Harrison, Charles Route and Marguerite Herman will also participate in the presentation.

The Wyoming Supreme Court is holding oral arguments in the iconic historic Supreme Court at the Wyoming State Capitol to mark the United States’ upcoming 250th anniversary. These sessions highlight the importance of the rule of law and an independent judiciary to Wyoming and the nation. Open to the public, attendees will watch dynamic, interactive arguments exploring legal issues that come before the court.
