The Townshend Acts, The British Government called for new taxes in 1776. SO Parliament passed the Townshend Acts.

The British Parliament repealed some of the Townshend Act duties. While most of the new taxes were repealed, the tax on tea continued and the British government kept on trying to tax the colonists without their consent. This finally led to the Boston Tea Party, followed by the American Revolution.
The purpose of the townshend act was to strengthen the power of the British Parliment, along with the British Royals. Charles Townshend convinced Parliment to pass a series of laws imposing new taxes on the colonists which included special tax on paper, paint, lead, glass, and tea imported by colonists. The acts also insured that colonial officials, such as judges and governors received salaries directly from the Royals.
It passed new laws for the colonists to follow those new laws
