John Adams was the second president of the U. S. and the only president of the Federalist Party. He was in power during the Quasi-War with France. The Quasi-War was an undeclared war between the U. S. and France from 1798 to 1800. After the French changed government during the French Revolutionary Wars, the U. S. refused to pay its debt to France, arguing that the money was owed to a previous regime. It involved two years of hostilities at sea. One of Adams’ greatest accomplishment was the peaceful resolution of this war.

Adams is also remembered because of his involvement in the “Midnight Judges” Act and in the Alien and Sedition Acts. The Alien and Sedition Acts were four bills passed by the U. S. Congress and signed into law by President John Adams in 1798. They made it more difficult for foreigners to become citizens and allowed the President to imprison foreigners that were considered dangerous or were from a hostile nation.

John Adams lost the 1800 election against Democratic-Republican Thomas Jefferson.
