Hi Dennis,
Welcome to Zoom. Please go through this article. Depending on your country and your usage of Zoom phone, you will need to procure licenses.
https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/360034342152-Requesting-Native-Zoom-Phone-numbers
Most licenses come with a Zoom phone number included so once you get a license ( metered, unlimited or Global select depending on your requirement), You can request a Zoom native phone number:

Now, once you have a phone number acquired, You can assign it to a user on Zoom after provisioning Zoom phone, and enable International calling to make calls to US in your specific example:

Hello Dennis,
if you are planning to keep existing numbers with your current telecom provider, zoom offers Bring your carrier service, which is a longer route, that you will need to initiate via a zoom support ticket.
if you are planning to buy numbers from zoom or port your numbers from your existing provider to zoom, that’s called native zoom phone setup and I described how to procure such numbers. In this case you will not need to pay your current provider.

Acquiring a Zoom phone number is actually quite easy. You don't need to buy a separate license or pay extra costs to get a phone number.To get a Zoom phone number, you'll need to have a Zoom Phone license. Once you have the license, you can then assign a phone number to your account.If you're looking for a local phone number for the US, you might want to check out https://www.mightycall.com/local-phone-numbers/. They offer local phone numbers that you can use with Zoom Phone or other VoIP services. It's a great way to establish a local presence without having to set up physical offices.

I would just clarify what MarelyHerman said by stating that each Zoom Phone Unlimited or Metered license includes a phone number. If a business needs additional phone numbers for Auto Receptionists, Call Queues etc there is a ala carte phone number license for those purposes but is a seperate license.
