Answer:
b. Restrict first amendment rights.
Explanation:
The Schenck v. United States (1919) Supreme Court case ruled by putting limitations on the rights of individuals if it concerns the interest of the nation. This ruling states that constitutional rights are not absolute and can be changed anytime the government sees fit.
