Charles Townshend suggested the implementation of the Townshend Acts in 1767, which imposed duties on imported goods such as glass, tea, paper, and paint in the American colonies. His goal was to raise revenue to pay colonial governors and judges, thereby increasing British control. The Acts ultimately fueled colonial resentment and contributed to the growing tensions that led to the American Revolution.
