Main Ideas Details/Facts Stamp Act: tax on legal & commercial docs had to be paid in silver coin British merchants complained (lost $$ b/c of boycotts) & Parliament repealed Stamp Act “NO TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION” Sons of Liberty (made up of lawyers, merchants, business owners) protested against new tax laws burned the stamped paper attacked & killed tax collectors (“tar & feather”)
