Halved the cost on foreign-made molasses Sugar Act (1764) Prime Minister George Greenville suspected the colonists were smuggling goods. In response he passed the Sugar Act. Act did 4 things: Halved the cost on foreign-made molasses Placed taxes on certain products Allowed prosecutors to try smuggling cases in a more harsh court. Only the rich could afford sugar

Stamp Act March 1765 – act was passed requiring colonists to purchase special stamped paper for every legal document, license, newspaper. Secret resistance group was formed called “Sons of Liberty” founded by Sam Adams

Parliament would get rid of the Stamp Act but passed another tax in 1767 called the Townshend Acts (Taxes put on imported materials) Colonists protested “taxation without representation”
