The Tea Act of 1773 had two main components. First, it granted the British East India Company the exclusive right to sell tea to the American colonies, effectively bypassing colonial merchants and reducing the price of tea. Second, it retained the existing tax on tea, which fueled colonial resentment, as many colonists viewed it as a violation of their rights to be taxed only with their consent. This act ultimately contributed to the unrest that led to the Boston Tea Party.
