This was in the controversy of the time of the Federalist of President John Adams. So the policies were used by Federalist president John Adams is the Alien and Sedition. This was a controversial act because it says that Federalist policies was disloyal and feared that aliens living in the United States would sympathize with the French during a war.

The correct option is THE ALIEN AND SEDITION ACTS.
The Alien and Sedition Acts were made up of four pieces of legislation, which caused serious controversy when they were enacted by President John Adams, who was a federalist. The Acts were put in place majorly to strengthen the position of John as the US president during his tenure.
