Coercive acts
The Intolerable Acts, also known as the Coercive Acts, were a series of laws passed by the British Parliament in 1774 in response to the Boston Tea Party. They were designed to punish the colonists in Massachusetts and assert British authority. The acts closed the Boston port, restricted town meetings, allowed British officials to be tried in England, and expanded Quartering Act powers. The goal was to force the colonists to pay for the destruction of the tea and to stop them from smuggling goods.
The British further angered American colonists with the Quartering Act, which required the colonies to provide barracks and supplies to British troops. The Quartering Act was passed in June 2, 1765, against the wishes of the colonist. The Quartering Act was an indirect tax for the colonist. Under the law, the colonist had to give quarters, food, and transportation to the British soldiers. The British forced the colonist to accept it because they were protecting the colonists from the French. The colonists did not consider the French a threat and did not like the idea of paying for the British protection.
The Townshend Act was passed in 1767 after the Colonists rebelled against the Stamp Act. The Townshend Act was a tax on glass, paint, lead, tea and other things the Colonists needed.
