The correct answer is It passed both the Espionage and Sedition Acts.

These laws, passed during World War I, tried to stop Americans from interfering with the governments effort to raise support for the war effort. For example, the Espionage Act (passed in 1917) made it illegal for any person in the US to interfer with the military draft. Anyone found in violation of this law could be arrested and serve jail time.

The Sedition Acts made it illegal to criticize the government during a time of war. This clearly violated the first amendment right of freedom of speech, which is what many citizens argued when it was passed by the federal government.

NeTakaya

Answer:

<em>See how the Louisiana Purchase led to the forcible removal of Indian tribes and fueled the slavery debate</em>

<em>See how the Louisiana Purchase led to the forcible removal of Indian tribes and fueled the slavery debateIn 1803, representatives of the United States traveled to France to negotiate for the city of New Orleans, which was then held by the French. Instead, they gained the entire Louisiana Territory, a total of 828,000 square miles. This vast acquisition of land cost the United States approximately 15 million dollars – or only about three cents an acre.</em>

The purchase also gave the United States control of both banks of the Mississippi River, as well as the port city of New Orleans, which connected the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico. Thirteen states, either in whole or in part, were eventually carved out of this new territory.</em>
