American colonists:

-Met at the Stamp Act Congress: The Stamp Act Congress was a colonists meeting held on October 19, 1765, in New York City, to discuss the newly created Stamp Act, whose discussion did not include representatives of the US colonies.

-Destroyed tea in Boston Harbor: On December 16, 1773, the Boston Tea Party took place, in which a whole shipment of tea was thrown into the sea. A group of settlers disguised as Indians threw the cargo of tea from three British ships into the sea. It was an act of protest by the American colonists against Great Britain and is considered a precedent of the war of Independence of the United States.

The rebellion of the settlers in the port of Boston was born as a result of the approval by Great Britain in 1773 of the Tea Act, which taxed the import from the metropolis of various products, including tea, to benefit the British Company of the East Indies to whom the colonists boycotted buying the tea of the Netherlands.

British Parliament:

-Passed the Intolerable Acts: Intolerable Acts was the name given to the laws issued in 1774 by the British Parliament due to continued discontent in the Thirteen American Colonies, particularly in Boston after turbulent incidents such as the Tea Party in Boston. The British also called them Coercive Acts or Punitive Acts. These acts accelerated the processes that culminated in the War of Independence of the United States and the formation of the First Continental Congress.

-Passed the Stamp Act: The Stamp Act was a law of the British Parliament that entailed a direct and specific tax for the thirteen colonies of British America that required that most printed materials in the colonies be published on sealed paper produced in London, stamped with a tax stamp in relief. These printed materials were legal documents, magazines, newspapers and many other types of paper used in all the colonies. Like the previous taxes, the stamp tax had to be paid in valid British currency, not colonial paper money, the purpose of the tax was to help pay the troops stationed in North America after the British victory in the Seven Years War and control the growing freedom of the press in the colonies.

The executive branch is prohibited from suspending laws at will.
