The Lend-Lease Act was a law passed by the United States Congress in 1941 that allowed the country to provide military aid to foreign nations during World War II. The act was designed to help the Allied powers, particularly Great Britain, which was struggling to fight Nazi Germany on its own. Under the Lend-Lease Act, the United States could lend or lease military equipment, supplies, and other resources to any country deemed vital to the defense of the United States. This act was a significant step towards the United States' involvement in World War II and helped to strengthen the Allied powers' ability to fight against the Axis powers.
