The two Alien Acts were half of the Alien And Sedition Acts passed by Congress and signed by President John Adams.

The Alien Friends Act allowed the President to imprison or deport aliens who were citizens or subjects of a friendly country and were considered "dangerous to the peace and safety of the United States" at any time. The Alien Enemies Act authorized the president to do the same to any male citizen of a hostile nation above the age of fourteen during times of war.

The Alien Friends Act was repealed by Congress during the administration of Thomas Jefferson.

With some modification, the Alien Enemies Act is still in force.
