Incomplete question, however I infer you want to know more about the role of the federal government.
<u>Explanation</u>:

The congress is made up of many
different kinds of committees. One of these committees is a standing committee,
which is best described as a permanent subject-matter committee. In total, there
are 20 standing committee in the House of Representatives, while there are 16
in the senate. Most bills sponsored to the congress receive consideration in
the standing committee under whose jurisdiction the matters contained in the
bill fall. Usually the congress follows the recommendations of the standing committee
on the fate of a bill.
I have encountered this question before. This was my answer.
The United States pursued gradual engagement to the Allied nations of Europe by passing the Lend-Lease Bill.
Under this bill, the United States will provide Great Britain the necessary supplies and armaments that it needs to fight against Germany. Knowing that Great Britain's liquidity is questionable, the United States will not demand immediate payment and when the time comes that payment is demanded,they will accept other modes of payment beside cash.
<span>In this scenario, the United States did not violate the Neutrality Act of 1939. They also ensured that the war fought in Europe will not reach their shores by ensuring that Great Britain has the capacity to fight and win the war against Germany. Thus, their assistance through lend-lease bill. </span>
The Transcontinental Railroad was also instrumental in putting thousands of people to work, and also they were instrumental in transporting cattle and resources in much more efficient ways.
Americans were mostly concerned about the economy. They were also scared of communism spreading into America.
