The Old Deluder Satan Act
british made the colonist pay a tax on molases and sugar ,but the colonist were angered.therefore, colonist convinced all 12 colonies except one to stop buying tea from the british, leading up to the stamp act of 1765.
The Stamp Act Congress convened in New York in October 1765. The colonists were able to persuade Parliament to repeal the Stamp Act, but on that same day, Parliament also passed the Declaratory Act. This act proclaimed Parliament's ability "to bind the colonies in all cases whatsoever." The message was clear: Under no circumstances could Parliament abandon in principle its right to legislate for the 13 colonies. This right included taxation. This act allowed Britian to govern and bind the colonies whenever and for what ever they wanted, without any repercussions. When this was passed the colonialists became more angry and resistent toward England.
The Stamp Act infuriated the American colonists. It imposed a tax on most paper documents and was seen as another example of taxation without representation.
