Parliament wanted to punish Bostonians
The Parliament passed the Coercive Acts in response to the Boston Tea Party, which they considered an act of rebellion against British authority. The purpose of these acts was to punish and assert control over the colony of Massachusetts, and to serve as a warning to other colonies. The British government hoped that by imposing these harsh measures, it would discourage further resistance and assert their authority over the colonies.
