Roosevelt Signs Lend-Lease Act into Law

March 11th, 1941 84 years ago

President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the Lend-Lease Act into law, enabling the United States to supply military aid to countries fighting against Axis powers during World War II. This law allowed the U.S. to ship war supplies to Allies on a lend-lease basis, which meant they were not required to pay upfront, promoting support for Britain and others while keeping the U.S. out of direct involvement in the war.
