Question

Which piece of Roosevelt’s legislation, passed in 1941, stirred up the most controversy?
the cash-and-carry amendment
the Neutrality Acts
the Destroyers for Bases agreement
the Lend-Lease Act

Answer 1

The Lend-Lease Act. Passed in March 1941, it was most controversial because it allowed the U.S. to supply arms and materiel on credit to Allies (notably Britain and later the USSR), which isolationists argued effectively ended neutrality and risked dragging the country into war.
