1 United States History I: Revolution to Reconstruction Pre/Post Assessment Booklet Grade 8-Alien and Sedition Acts Diagnostic Writing Assessment: Research Simulation Task Secondary Social Studies Prince George s County Social Studies Office
2 Research Simulation Assessment Task Template: Adapted from IFL PARCC Training United States History I: Revolution to Reconstruction Pre/Post Assessment Step 1: Activate Prior Knowledge Directions: Read the passage below: The Federalist-controlled Congress passed the Alien and Sedition Acts while John Adams was President in The act [law] consisted of four laws and was passed while America prepared for war with France. These acts increased the residency requirement for American citizenship from five to fourteen years, authorized the president to imprison or deport aliens [immigrants] considered "dangerous to the peace and safety of the United States" and restricted speech critical of the government. Federalist and Democratic Republicans [political parties] had different opinions about the amount of power states and federal government should have. They shared their disagreements about different leaders and issues in public newspapers. Democratic Republicans strongly objected to the Alien Sedition Acts, but Federalists supported them. Step 2: Text Reading and Analysis Directions: You will read three texts that provide perspective on a constitutional violation. As you are reading, think about the following question: Did the Alien Sedition Acts violate the U.S. Constitution? 2
3 Text 1: Library of Congress Excerpt: Alien and Sedition Acts The Federalist-controlled Congress passed the Alien and Sedition Acts while John Adams was President in The act [law] consisted of four laws and was passed while America prepared for war with France. These acts increased the residency requirement for American citizenship from five to fourteen years, authorized the president to imprison or deport aliens [immigrants] considered "dangerous to the peace and safety of the United States" and restricted speech critical of the government. Federalist and Democratic Republicans [political parties] had different opinions about the amount of power states and federal government should have. They shared their disagreements about different leaders and issues in public newspapers. Democratic Republicans strongly objected to the Alien Sedition Acts, but Federalists supported them. Did these acts violate the United States Constitution? 3
4 Text 2: Kentucky Resolutions, October 1798 The United States of America are not united on the idea of giving unlimited power to the federal government. The tenth amendment to the Constitution, says that "the powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution are reserved to the States or to the people." Also, the first amendment says that Congress should not make laws limiting the freedom of speech or of the press." This means that harmful lies and defamation are not under the power of the federal courts. Therefore, the Sedition Act, passed by Congress on the 14th day of July 1798, is not legal and has no force. In addition, aliens are protected by state law. No power over them has been given to the federal government. Therefore, the Alien Act goes against the Constitution. The fifth amendment to the Constitution states that "no person shall be deprived of liberty without due process of law." But, the Alien Act allows the President to remove a person from the United States without a jury, public trial, or lawyer. This Act is not legal and has no force. It transfers power from the courts to the President of the United States. This goes against Article Three of the Constitution which states that "the judicial power of the United States shall be vested in courts. We declare that these acts go against the Constitution. They take rights away from the States and put them in the hands of the federal Government. They take control over the States, not only in federal cases, but in all cases. And they establish laws not with the consent of the States, but against their consent. If we accept these acts, we will surrender the form of government we have chosen. We will live under a government that gets its powers from its own will, and not from our authority. Source: Excerpt adapted from a draft of the Kentucky Resolutions written in October 1798 by Thomas Jefferson. 4
5 Text 3: Massachusetts Response, February 9, 1799 We consider the Alien and Sedition Acts constitutional, appropriate, and necessary. Aliens have temporary rights, which should be taken away whenever they become dangerous to the public safety or are found guilty of treason against the government. Congress has a duty to defend the nation. When Congress passed the Alien Act, we were threatened with invasion by the French. Thousands of aliens were ready to cooperate in an attack. The removal of aliens is a common practice when preparing for war. The law, therefore, was just and necessary. The first amendment says that Congress cannot make laws reducing the freedom of speech or of the press. The Sedition Act does not take away these freedoms. The true liberty of speech and the press is the liberty to say and publish the truth. This is different than the reckless use of speech and writing to spread lies and damage people s reputations. The amendment is a safety measure for the reasonable use of the press, not its abuse. This right is not violated, but approved and set up by the recent act of Congress. The federal government has the power and the duty to defend against war. It has the right to keep rebellions under control and protect each state from attack. The Constitution specifically grants these powers to the federal government in Article I, Section 8. It says that Congress shall have the power to make all laws that are necessary and proper for carrying out its powers. The Alien and Sedition Acts are justified by the Constitution. These Acts are wise and necessary. A spirit of lies and abuse has been allowed for too long. This spirit has been leading public opinion astray. It has threatened to undermine and destroy the whole fabric of government. Source: Excerpt adapted from the Massachusetts legislators response to the Virginia and Kentucky Resolutions. February 9,
