The principle that only colonial legislators could tax the colonists was rooted in the idea of "no taxation without representation." This concept emerged during the 18th century as colonists opposed British taxes imposed without their consent, arguing that only their elected representatives had the authority to levy taxes. The sentiment culminated in widespread resistance to British taxation policies, leading to events such as the Boston Tea Party and ultimately contributing to the American Revolution.
