This Day in History: , The United States Officially Enters World War I.
April 6, 1917.
War against Germany was
declared in both the Senate and
House of Representatives by votes
of 82-6 and 373-50, respectively.
President Woodrow Wilson had called for
the declaration of war four days earlier.
The U.S. had been preparing for
war since the passage of a $250 million arms
appropriations bill in Feb.
Though initially against joining the war in Europe,
American public opinion shifted as German
attacks on ocean liners escalated.
The first U.S. troops landed
in France in late June.
The arrival of fresh and well-supplied
forces proved to be a turning point in
the war after four years of bloody combat

Itâs a great business and Iâm going
to put together a group to buy TikTok, Steven Mnuchin, Former Treasury Secretary, via CNBCâs âSquawk Boxâ.
This should be owned by
U.S. businesses. Thereâs no
way that the Chinese would
ever let a U.S. company own
something like this in China, Steven Mnuchin, Former Treasury Secretary, via CNBCâs âSquawk Boxâ.
NBC points out that the bill still requires Senate approval
before it heads to President Joe Biden, who has indicated
that he would support the bill if it passes through Congress.
