Question

What was the result of the US senate considering the Treaty of Versailles

Answer 1

The US Senate ultimately rejected the Treaty of Versailles. Despite President Woodrow Wilson's efforts to garner support and push for its ratification, the treaty failed to gain the necessary two-thirds majority vote in the Senate. The main reasons for the rejection were concerns about the treaty compromising American sovereignty, its enforcement mechanisms, and the League of Nations, which was seen as an infringement on American sovereignty and independence. As a result, the United States did not ratify the Treaty of Versailles and remained officially separate from the League of Nations.
