Parliament imposed the Stamp Act in 1765 primarily to raise revenue to pay off debts incurred during the French and Indian War and to fund the British military presence in North America. This act mandated that many printed materials in the colonies, such as newspapers and legal documents, carry a tax stamp, thereby directly affecting a wide range of colonists.
