    The Stamp Act
    • Define: Taxed legal documents, printed materials (newspapers, playing cards) with a stamp.
    • Colonists’ Reaction: Violent protests (e.g., Stamp Act Congress, Sons of Liberty), widespread boycotts, and the act was eventually repealed due to colonial resistance.
    The Quartering Act
    • Define: Forced colonists to house British troops (provide housing, supplies).
    • Colonists’ Reaction: Anger over loss of privacy/property rights, some colonies (like New York) initially resisted (though later complied under pressure).
    The Townshend Acts
    • Define: Taxed imported goods (tea, paint, glass) to raise revenue for British governance.
    • Colonists’ Reaction: Boycotts of British imports, protests (e.g., non-importation agreements), and tensions escalated (contributed to events like the Boston Massacre).
