The Boston Port Act, enacted in 1774 as part of the Coercive Acts (or Intolerable Acts), was a punitive measure by the British Parliament in response to the Boston Tea Party. It closed the port of Boston to all trade until the East India Company was compensated for the tea that was destroyed. This act aimed to isolate Massachusetts and suppress colonial resistance, ultimately escalating tensions between Britain and the American colonies. It contributed to the growing colonial unity against British rule, leading to the American Revolution.
