Sedition vs. Resolution This week I really want you to think about whether there was any good reason for either the Adams' administration Sedition Act or Jefferson and Madison's response. Were either of them in the right? Were either of them dangerous to the new republic? Which might you have been more likely to support had you been there?

The Sedition Act was passed in the form of law during the late 1700s and stated that inciting or resisting rebellion against the government by citizens is illegal.
The Resolutions, as a result, were passed as a consequence of the Sedation Act and stated that the states had the responsibility to declare the unauthorized bits of the constitution as unconstitutional.
