A
Schenck v. United States

the arrest of Emma Goldman

Explanation

President McKinley was assassinated in 1901 by Leon Czolgosz, who had anarchist associations. In response, Congress passed the Anarchist Exclusion Act in 1903, restricting the immigration of anarchists. The Espionage and Sedition Acts and Schenck v. United States came during World War I, much later.
