American Opposition Wilson presented the Treaty of Versailles to the
U.S. Senate in July 1919 for ratification– The Senate had to approve the treaty before the U.S
could officially accept it
Many Americans did not trust the idea of a League of Nations They thought that an
organization would tie America to international work (protecting other nations) forever

American Opposition The U.S. Senate
rejected the Treaty of Versailles in 1920– The U.S. did NOT join
the League of Nations– In 1921 the U.S. signed
a separate treaty with each of the Central Powers, officially ending the war.
