These acts were a series of laws which raised the residency requirement to become a U.S. citizen from 5 to 14 years, allowed the President to detain and imprison individuals believed to be danger to the nation, also any citizen of another nation over the age of 14 could also be imprisoned if they were deemed to be a threat to the U.S., and finally there were restrictions put into place in relation to speech against the United States.
