Why did many Americans object to the Alien and Sedition Acts?

The acts violated a basic civil right that was guaranteed by the First Amendment to the U. S. Constitution.

The acts raised taxes on working-class white Americans but not on slave-owning southern planters.

The acts allowed newspapers to criticize the government, which most Americans believed was unpatriotic.

The acts allowed too many foreigners into the country, and Americans were afraid of losing their jobs.
