Answer: The World War I soldiers were promised $2 billion bonuses.

Explanation: Congress, with Democrats holding majorities in both houses, passed the Adjusted Compensation Act in 1936, authorizing the immediate payment of the $2 billion in World War I bonuses, and then overrode Roosevelt’s veto of the measure. The House vote was 324 to 61, and the Senate vote was 76 to 19.
