State of the Union speech
The 1941 State of the Union address was delivered by Franklin D. Roosevelt, the 32nd President of the United States, on January 6, 1941. Roosevelt warned of unprecedented global threats from Axis powers during World War II and introduced his vision of the Four Freedoms: freedom of speech, freedom of worship, freedom from want, and freedom from fear.
Roosevelt called for expanded defense production and Lend-Lease aid to nations resisting aggression, asserting the U.S. role as the "arsenal of democracy." Domestically, he advocated for increased taxation to fund defense, unemployment insurance, and economic reforms.
The address became a defining moment in U.S. foreign policy, reinforcing the nation's commitment to democracy and influencing postwar frameworks like the Atlantic Charter.
