Patrick Henry disagreed with the Stamp Act of 1765 because he believed it violated the rights of the American colonists as Englishmen, who should not be taxed without their consent. He argued that only their own colonial assemblies had the authority to levy taxes, emphasizing the principle of no taxation without representation. Henry's opposition reflected a growing sentiment among colonists that British policies were infringing on their liberties and autonomy. His famous speech in the Virginia House of Burgesses galvanized resistance to British rule.
