April 6 1917 Original New Haven Evening Union US at War Germany\'s Fleet Seized, Crew and Officers Interned 20 pages U.S. Entry into World War I,1917On April 2, 1917, PresidentWoodrow Wilsonwent before a joint session of Congress to request a declaration of war against Germany. Wilson cited Germany’s violation of its pledge to suspend unrestricted submarine warfare in the North Atlantic and the Mediterranean, as well as its attempts to entice Mexico into an alliance against the United States, as his reasons for declaring war. On April 4, 1917, the U.S. Senate voted in support of the measure to declare war onGermany. The House concurred two days later. The United States later declared war on German ally Austria-Hungary on December 7, 1917. World War I Trenches in FranceGermany’s resumption of submarine attacks on passenger and merchant ships in 1917 became the primary motivation behind Wilson’s decision to lead the United States into World War I. Following the sinking of an unarmed French boat, theSussex, in the English Channel in March 1916, Wilson threatened to sever diplomatic relations with Germany unless the German Government refrained from attacking all passenger ships and allowed the crews of enemy merchant vessels to abandon their ships prior to any attack. On May 4, 1916, the German Government accepted these terms and conditions in what came to be known as the “Sussexpledge.”
