first answer:

The Congress of the US declared war on Japan for bombing their naval fleet in Hawaii the day before.

second answer:

West of the International Date-line in the Pacific Ocean: December 8th, 1941 was the day that the Japanese started their near-simultaneous attacks on the US & the British Empire (at Philippines, Malaya, Singapore, Hong Kong, etc.). East of the Date-Line (Hawaii, America & Europe) it was December 7th. So the next day (East of the Date-Line) the United States declared War on Japan.
