Since the Roman Empire had ceased to exist long before the US came into existence in the late 18th century, I would argue that the US did not adopt anything from the Romans, at least not directly. Of course, the Romans did influence the British, who in turn were the main influence on the US. But there are lots of things that were not adopted from the Romans, even indirectly by way of the British. Several of America's favorite crops, including corn and potatoes, were unknown to the Roman Empire, for example.
