To tighten its control over colonial trade
British immigrants came to America for many reasons, but most were seeking an opportunity for a better life than they had at home.Very early in the history of Colonial American, some groups of immigrants came seeking religious liberty, or the opportunity to establish their own religious orthodoxy, separate from that of the Church of England, and to persecute those who did not conform to their views, just as they had been persecuted nonconformists in England.
They didn't have to exactly. But there were many reasons the English started to immagrate to North America. The original main reason is to start 'a new life'.

The church was the center of early colonial life. It included the social and political hierarchy, primarily due to the strong religious feelings of the colonists -- for most it was their reason for having left England.
Colonial tea merchants had more reason to resist the tea act. The new law allowed the East Indian company to sell tea directly to the colonial shopkeepers at lower prices than the merchants, without being taxed, and the merchants lost a lot of money.
The Desire to become an American Citizen.
Many people in England were living in poverty and the king was protestant. Some of the residents of England were not protestant. They were maybe catholic or jewish. So, religous freedom and a new life or start is the reason the colonist moved to america.

To escape religious persecution in England.
Everybody who lived in England in the 17th century had to be a part of the Anglican Church, which the king had made the official church of England. This is the reason that most colonists came to America, to seek religious freedom.
