On April 4, 1917, the U.S. Senate voted in support of the measure to declare war on Germany. The House concurred two days later. The United States later declared war on German ally Austria-Hungary on December 7, 1917. Germanyâs resumption of submarine attacks on passenger and merchant ships in 1917 became the primary motivation behind Wilsonâs decision to lead the United States into World War I.
It galvanized public opinion which came to support entering the War. The United States declared War (April 6, 1917). Despite what had been strong anti-War sentiment, both the Senate and House overwhelmingly voted to declare war.
