The 21st amendment to the US Constitution,

adopted in December 1933, performs only one function — it terminates the 18th amendment, which prohibited the production, sale, transportation, export and import of alcoholic beverages in the United States. Prohibition acted for 14 years, until President Roosevelt persuaded them that they didn’t give any measures and did not initiate the adoption of the 21st amendment. This is the only case in the history of the United States where an amendment to an earlier amendment has been made.
