The series of laws referred to is known as the Intolerable Acts, also called the Coercive Acts, enacted by the British Parliament in 1774. These laws were a response to the Boston Tea Party and included measures such as closing Boston Harbor, requiring colonists to house British soldiers, and allowing British officials accused of crimes to be tried in Britain rather than in the colonies. The Intolerable Acts fueled growing resentment and opposition among the colonists, ultimately contributing to the American Revolution.
