Answer 2

Answer:The correct answer is D) The importance of national security to the Federalists. ... The Alien And Sedition Acts were meant to invoke stricter laws on immigration in order to protect national security. The Federalist felt that immigration at this time posed a threat to America's safety.

As a result, a Federalist-controlled Congress passed four laws, known collectively as the Alien and Sedition Acts. These laws raised the residency requirements for citizenship from 5 to 14 years, authorized the President to deport aliens and permitted their arrest, imprisonment, and deportation during wartime.
