Great Britain passed new laws in America primarily to address the financial burdens of the French and Indian War, which had significantly increased the national debt. The British government sought to impose taxes and regulations, such as the Stamp Act and the Townshend Acts, to raise revenue from the colonies. Additionally, these laws aimed to exert greater control over colonial trade and governance, leading to growing tensions and resistance among the colonists. Ultimately, these measures contributed to the desire for independence and the American Revolution.

Great Britain made many strict laws for the people to follow. The Americans had no one to represent them- meaning they had no way of changing these laws. They were very unhappy under British rule and decided they wanted their freedom.
only people in great Britain should write laws in parliament
The Intolerable Acts (this was what the colonists dubbed it, not the official name) were very harsh and strict laws and taxes that the British passed on the colonies. These very unfair sets of laws were passed to keep colonists under the strict control over Great Britain (actually, feathering, or pouring extremely hot tar and then putting feathers on colonists, became a very common practice when the Intolerable Acts were passed by Great Britain). Hope I helped!
