[quote=LEONARDO,291912]In 1933, the "drinking age was set at 21 in most states in America. Between 1970 and 1975, during the second half of the Vietnam War, many states decided to lower it to 18, 19 or 20. Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) is a national campaign aiming to raise the minimum drinking age. The movement was launched by a mother whose 13-year-old daughter was killed by a drunk driver in May 1980. Although the driver was in his 40s, the result of the movement was that all 50 states passed the National Minimum Drinking Age Act in 1984, raising that age to 21.[/quote]
