∙ 9y agoThe Alien and Sedition acts were created because the country was headed to war and many felt the need for strengthening the government. The Alien Act gave the President power over immigrants and the Sedition Act made it against the law to criticize the President and the government. One of the effects of both acts was that it limited freedom of speech protection.
