參議院通過附加貸款租賃法案 (Supplemental Lend-Lease Bill)
19411023

貸款租賃法案
無形上賦予羅斯福總統有絕對的權力能夠任意提供援救物資、軍備武器、飛機、坦克、卡車,與食物等到歐洲戰場上,但美國並不用實際介入戰爭。然而,這個法案也讓美國更接近介入戰爭的邊緣。不久之後,西元194112月,美國在夏威夷珍珠港的海軍基地遭到日軍的攻擊,這個事件也使美國直接投入第二次世界大戰。國會通過,羅斯福總統隨即簽署對日宣戰。


The Lend-Lease Act gave Roosevelt virtually unlimited authority to direct material aid such as ammunition, tanks, airplanes, trucks, and food to the war effort in Europe without the U.S. actually entering the war. Nonetheless, it brought the United States one step closer to direct involvement in World War II. Soon after, in December 1941, the Japanese attacked the U.S. naval base at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii. This forced America's direct involvement in World War II. Congress passed and Roosevelt signed the Declaration of War against Japan.
