The Sugar Act is an act passed by the British Parliament in 1764. It placed a tax of three cents on sugar that was bought by the American colonists. During the French and Indian War, Britain collected a great amount of debt. In order to raise money, they decided to tax the colonists. The Sugar Act is one of the many taxes imposed by Parliament. It also added tax on molasses to stop the colonists from smuggling it in. This law not only taxed sugar and molasses, but also taxed other products that England shipped to the colonists. It also imposed severe penalties on smugglers.
