The Stamp Act, enacted by the British Parliament in 1765, was a law requiring colonial Americans to pay a tax on every piece of printed paper they used, including newspapers, legal documents, and playing cards. This act aimed to help cover the costs of British troops stationed in North America after the Seven Years' War. The imposition of the tax without colonial representation in Parliament sparked widespread protests and contributed to the growing sentiment for independence, leading to its repeal in 1766. It was a pivotal moment in the buildup to the American Revolution.
It was the Currency Act that outlawed the use of paper money in the colonies. Parliament passed the act in 1764.
