The Virginia Stamp Act Resolutions were a series of legislative measures adopted by the Virginia House of Burgesses in May 1765 in response to the Stamp Act imposed by Britain. Drafted primarily by Patrick Henry, these resolutions asserted that only the Virginia assembly had the right to tax its citizens, rejecting the authority of the British Parliament. The resolutions were significant in galvanizing colonial opposition to British taxation and helped lay the groundwork for the broader American Revolution. Their passage marked an early expression of colonial unity against perceived overreach by the British government.
