American activists sprang into action. Some created secret societies called the Sons of Liberty. James Otis suggested an intercolonial congress be formed to agree on a united course of action. The Stamp Act Congress convened in New York in October 1765. The colonists were able to persuade Parliament to repeal the Stamp Act, but on that same day, Parliament also passed the Declaratory Act. This act proclaimed Parliament's ability "to bind the colonies in all cases whatsoever." The message was clear: Under no circumstances could Parliament abandon in principle its right to legislate for the 13 colonies. This right included taxation.
