The correct answer is A) the Federalist party's control of Congress in the presidency.

The passage of the Alien and Sedition Acts led directly to the Federalist party's control of Congress in the presidency.

When the United States knew that an armed confrontation with France was at the brink, the federalist government passed four pieces of legislation known as the Alien and Sedition Acts of 1798. The new laws suppressed freedom of speech, freedom of the press, and restricted immigration. President John Adams, the second President after George Washington, feared the worst and took the proper measures according to federalists.
