Why did Zimmermann choose to send the message through the U.S. State Department? The German U-boat was grounded because it needed repairs. The Americans planned to enter the war and side with the Germans. The content of the message was extraordinarily important. The safest way of transmitting messages was by telegram.

Arthur Zimmerman chose to send the message through the telegram of the United States consulate because he was aware that the telegrams sent were all decoded and that the American government was keeping a check on every message sent.
Although this was done, the people were told that their messages were safe and no surveillance was being done.
