In case regarding the sedition act, the Supreme Court ruled the act constitutional.

The Sedition Act of 1918 constituted an Act of the United States Congress that extended the Espionage Act of 1917 to deal with a great variety of offenses, notably speech and the expression of opinion conveyed by the government or the war effort in a negative sense or interfered with the sale of government bonds.
