Answer:

He recommended that Congress immediately declare war on Japan.

Explanation:

The surprise attack of Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, by Japanese forces on American forces was the basis of President Roosevelt's "Day of Infamy" speech. This event would become the main cause of the decision to go to war against Japan.

President Roosevelt declared that December 7 will "live in infamy", blaming the Empire of Japan for deliberately attacking the United States. And it was this act of "unprovoked and dastardly attack" that requires Congress to declare "a state of war has existed between the United States and the Japanese Empire." And in demanding this retaliation, we can infer that the then-president will recommend that Congress immediately declare war on Japan.

Thus, the correct answer is the first option.  

Answer:He recommended that Congress immediately declare war on Japan.
