The Stamp Act, enacted by the British Parliament in 1765, required American colonists to purchase and affix a special tax stamp on a wide range of printed materials, including newspapers, legal documents, and licenses. This was the first direct tax imposed on the colonies, leading to widespread protests and contributing to the growing discontent that ultimately sparked the American Revolution. The act aimed to raise revenue to help pay off debts from the French and Indian War but was met with significant resistance from colonists who argued it violated their rights as Englishmen.
The Stamp Act of 1765, was a tax that would be paid by purchasing a stamp, and the stamp would be placed on the article that an individual was in the market for. The act would require stamps for newspapers, legal documents, playing cards, ship's papers, and the like.
