Answer:
D) political opposition
Explanation:
The Alien and Sedition Acts were a series of laws passed by the United States Congress and signed into law by President John Adams in 1798. These laws made it more difficult for immigrants to become citizens. They also allowed the president to imprison and deport foreigners if they were considered "dangerous." However, critics believed that the laws were passed in order to suppress voters who disagreed with the Federalist Party.
