To help Britain, the Lend-Lease Act allowed the U.S. to send weapons to them if they agreed to return or pay rent for them after the war.How did President Roosevelt assist Britain while maintaining U.S. neutrality? He sent old destroyers to Britain and “sold” arms under the Lend Lease Act.

He secretly still provided assistance to the British. Similar to the Lusitania in WWI. Though we were still under neutrality, we always helped the British.
