The Boston Port Bill, enacted in 1774 as part of the Coercive Acts, aimed to punish the city of Boston for the Boston Tea Party by closing its port until the East India Company was compensated for the destroyed tea. This legislation sought to assert British control and authority over the colonies, particularly in response to growing colonial resistance. The bill significantly impacted Boston's economy and heightened tensions between Britain and the American colonies, contributing to the push for independence.
