Woodrow Wilson is inaugurated as the 28th President of the United States on March 4, 1913. The Federal Reserve Act, the Child Labor Reform Act, and legislation supporting unions were passed during his term. However, he also allowed Jim Crow laws to be put into place in Washington D.C., segregating the Treasury and Postal Service departments.
Wilson was elected to a second term in office in 1916, running on the slogan “He Kept us Out of War”. However, the United States of America declared war on Germany in April 1917 and entered WWI.
