The Alien and Sedition Acts, enacted in 1798, were controversial measures aimed at suppressing dissent and limiting the influence of immigrants, particularly those aligned with the anti-Federalist viewpoint. While proponents argued they were necessary for national security amid fears of war with France, critics viewed them as an infringement on civil liberties and a political tool to stifle opposition. Ultimately, many historians consider the acts to be an overreach of governmental power rather than a reasonable response to anti-Federalist sentiment.
