The act that funded the British troops stationed in the American colonies was the Quartering Act of 1765. This legislation required colonial assemblies to provide housing and supplies for British soldiers. It was part of a series of measures that contributed to rising tensions between the colonies and the British government, ultimately leading to the American Revolution.

The British soldiers were required to provide housing and accommodations for themselves, as mandated by the Quartering Act. This law compelled colonial governments to supply barracks or, if necessary, private homes for British troops stationed in the colonies. Additionally, soldiers needed to be provided with food and other supplies, placing a financial burden on local colonists. This act fueled resentment and contributed to the growing tensions between Britain and the American colonies.
The Stamp Act was passed in 1765 by the British Parliament and was the first to direct tax the colonies.
Colonists resented British troops stationed in the colonies because they viewed their presence as an occupying force that infringed on their autonomy and rights. The troops were often seen as enforcers of unpopular laws, such as the Stamp Act and Townshend Acts, leading to increased tensions. Additionally, the Quartering Act required colonists to provide housing and supplies for the soldiers, which many found burdensome and unjust. This military presence heightened fears of oppression and contributed to the growing desire for independence.

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.
England stationed British soldiers in the colonies because there was much rebellion and a growing tension in the colonies over British taxes(Stamp Act, Tea Act, Sugar Act, Townshed acts) . Britan wanted to make sure that the colonies remanied under control and they did not want a rebellion to start. The soldiers stationed there were called 'lobsterbacks' by the patriots (colonists who disagreed with taxes and wanted freedom from Britan). This was not that helpful by having the soldiers there-it reminded people that they were controlled and taxed by Britan and urged them to rebel. Soldiers from Britan were teased by patriots and this teasing lead to the first act of rebellion-the Boston Massacre. -roundrupert
Well, the New Yorkers were especially angry because most of the British Troops were stationed there. So I'm guessing somewhere around New York. But it effected all of the colonies.
