Wiki says Republicans controlled the US House + Senate when the Volstead Act [Prohibition] was passed over Democratic President Woodrow Wilson's veto in 1919



Uvm.edu says Republican + Eugenicist Indiana Governor James Frank Hanly [Gov. from 1905 -1909] ran for president on the Prohibitionist Party ticked in 1916

"Republican Governor James Frank Hanly was the governor of Indiana, 1905-1909, who signed the 1907 law authorizing involuntary sterilizations in Indiana. Hanly was known for being “an anti-vice crusader and hard-line prohibitionist” (Stern 2005, p. 9), even so much so as to run for president for the Prohibition Party in 1916 (In.gov, "Hanly"). Hanly was also praised by Dr. Sharp, who stated that his administration “has been noted for its efforts at race purity and civic righteousness” (Sharp 1907, p. 179). His biography in the Indiana state government website mentions nothing of the sterilization law."
