That was the Stamp Act.
The British imposed several taxes on American colonists to generate revenue, most notably the Stamp Act of 1765, which required printed materials to carry a tax stamp. Other significant taxes included the Townshend Acts, which taxed goods like tea, paper, and glass, and the Tea Act, which granted the British East India Company a monopoly on tea sales. These taxes led to widespread resentment and protests among colonists, contributing to the Revolutionary War.
The purpose of the Act of 1765 was to help pay for troops stationed in North America. Printed materials such as legal documents, magazines, playing cards, newspapers and other other types of paper used throughout the Colonies had to be paid in valid British currency
The 1765 Stamp Act was a law passed by the British Parliament that required colonists to pay a tax on a wide range of paper goods, including newspapers, legal documents, and playing cards. This act aimed to help cover the costs of British troops stationed in North America after the French and Indian War. The requirement to stamp these paper items as proof of tax payment led to widespread protests and was a significant factor in the growing discontent that eventually contributed to the American Revolution. The act was repealed in 1766 due to the backlash from the colonists.

The Stamp Act of 1765 taxed printed materials. It was intended to raise money for the British military.
The Stamp Act of 1765 was a move by the British Parliament that imposed a tax on all paper goods produced in the colonies. The goods now had to be printed on special paper from London, that was stamped with a special seal. These taxes could not be paid with the paper money in the colonies, but with legal British currency. The taxes from this act were to support the British troops stationed in the American Colonies.
Lord Grenville's plan to enforce new taxes included the Stamp Act of 1765, which imposed a tax on all colonial paper materials, and the Townshend Acts of 1767, which imposed duties on imported goods such as glass, lead, paint, and tea in the American colonies. These taxes were intended to help pay Britain's debt from the French and Indian War and to assert British authority over the colonies.
The Stamp Act was passed by the British POarliament which imposed direct taxes on the American colonists on 22 March, 1765.
