This Day in History: The United States Officially Enters World War I (Sat., April 6)

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

House Passes Stopgap Funding Bill to Avert Shutdown; Senate Vote & Biden’s Approval Next

The House passed a stopgap funding bill to avert a government shutdown just hours before the midnight deadline. The bill extends funding through March 2025, providing disaster relief and farm aid, but excludes the debt limit suspension demanded by President-elect Trump. The bill now moves to the Senate for approval before being sent to President Biden. Speaker Mike Johnson and other Republicans worked to secure Democratic support, while Trump’s opposition led to changes in the bill's provisions. #GovernmentShutdown #StopgapFunding #HouseVote #DisasterRelief #FarmAid #DebtLimit #SenateApproval #PresidentBiden #RepublicanLeadership #TrumpOpposition #Oneindia #OneindiaNews Also Read Government Shutdown: What It Means for Federal Employees and Social Security Payments :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/government-shutdown-impacts-on-federal-employees-011-4021087.html?ref=DMDesc Trump's New Demands Result in Collapse of Bipartisan Government Funding Plan Ahead of Deadline :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/government-funding-plan-collapses-trump-demands-011-4020029.html?ref=DMDesc US Congress Approves Temporary Funding Bill to Prevent Government Shutdown Until December :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-congress-passes-temporary-funding-bill-avoid-shutdown-011-3945067.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.102~PR.362~GR.125~

The U.S. Pentagon and President Biden have strongly condemned the International Criminal Court's (ICC) decision to issue arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant. The ICC's charges against the Israeli leaders, including crimes against humanity and war crimes, have sparked a wave of criticism from Israel and the U.S., with both sides rejecting the court's jurisdiction. The ICC's move follows Senate threats of sanctions against the court, adding further diplomatic tension. #ICC #Israel #Netanyahu #WarCrimes #Biden #Pentagon #USPolicy #InternationalLaw #Hamas #IsraelDefense #ICCJurisdiction #InternationalNews #InternationalRelations #Oneindia #OneindiaNews ~HT.318~PR.362~ED.101~GR.344~

Trump Rejects Bipartisan Deal, Pushes Dangerous New Proposal: Govt. Shutdown Days Before Christmas?

As the deadline to prevent a government shutdown rapidly approaches, former President Donald Trump has dismissed a bipartisan agreement between Republicans and Democrats. Trump pushed for a controversial new deal that includes a three-month government funding extension and a two-year suspension of the debt ceiling, a proposal that was swiftly rejected by the House of Representatives.
