They viewed this law by what thomas jefferson ,madison thought about the law. There you go your answer. :D
yes
The Federalists in Congress passed the Alien and Sedition Acts to prevent immigrants trying to get America involved in a war with France. Aliens that were considered dangerous were to be deported. Kentucky and Virginia passed resolutions that the Alien and Sedition Acts were unConstitutional. President John Adams had a tool to get rid of those he did not agree with. Thomas Jefferson and James Madison disagreed and said it was against freedom of speech and press. When Jefferson won the election, the Alien and Sedition Acts expired.
The Democratic-Republicans, led by James Madison and Thomas Jefferson searched a way to fight the alien and sedition acts. they found it in a theory that the federal government could not violate. Jefferson & Madison wrote resolution (or statements) passed by Kentucky and Virginia legislatures in 1798 and 1799.
