The Lusitania was a passenger ocean liner sunk by the Germans during World War One not World War 2. The sinking and killing of over 300 Americans, including Mr. Vanderbilt and thousands of Britons, incensed the Americans and President Wilson.
The Congress and President Wilson declared war on Germany.
You may be confusing the Lusitania in WW1. In 1941 the ships sank were those on Battleship Row, Pearl Harbor, Hawaii....

The Robin Moor was a US ship sunk in neutral waters by a German submarine several months before the United States was in the Second World War. The sinking was an illegal act and caused increased tension between the United States and Germany.
The events that caused the US to become involved in World War 1 were the unrestricted submarine warfare policy adopted by Germany, which targeted American ships; the revelation of the Zimmermann Telegram, in which Germany proposed a military alliance with Mexico against the US; and the sinking of the British passenger ship Lusitania, which had American passengers on board. These incidents led to mounting public pressure and eventually prompted the US to enter the war in April 1917.
A few events caused the US to enter the war. The main event was the sinking of the British passenger ship, the Lusitania, in May 1917. On board the ship were a number of Americans. The German U20 submarine torpedoed the ship, and withing 18 minutes the ship sunk. Less than half the people on board survived. A little bit of trivia: some people beleived the British let the Germans sink the Lusitania in order to get the US to join the war. This may be true, as the British Navy's actions before and after the event support this.

By ship
One: Germany sank the British "Lusitania", a ship. This ship had 128 Americans on board. This caused America to be angry. Two: America was becoming less and less neutral by the day. It was really tempted to fight against the growing dictatorship of Germany. Finally Congress declared war on Germany in April 6, 1917 after the failed treaties between America and Germany.
