1. B.) passing the Sedition Act

The sedition act prohibited the citizens from criticizing the central government. This was an effort made by the American central government i the past in order to silence their position and maintain the supreme power of the central government.

2. B. Nullification Doctrine

Nullification doctrine refers to the way of thinking that believe all states had the right to refuse the legislations created by the central government if those legislations are unconstitutional. This nullification doctrine was created in response to the sedition act.

3. C.) The Sedition Act made false statements about public officials a crime.

The problem with this is that the one that determine which statement is false and which statement is correct would be the investigators owned by the federal government. Because of this, the republicans believe that the sedition act was extremely unconstitutional and violate their rights for free speech.

The reserved powers can only be initiated by the leaders of the state. For example, everytime producers in a state exported their products, they need to pay a certain amount of tax rate to the government. The right to determine this export tax rate is reserved only to the states, the federal government cannot do anything to influence it.
