The Intolerable Acts
“To punish the citizens of Boston and to warn all colonists about the repercussions of challenging British authority, the British Parliament passed five acts in 1774. The colonists called these acts the Intolerable or Coercive Acts. The Boston Port Act closed the port of Boston until the tea the Patriots had dumped into the harbor was paid for, thus showing the British respect they believed they deserved. The Massachusetts Government Act gave the governor full power to appoint all government officials and judges, taking those powers away from the people of Boston. The Administration of Justice Act declared that any British soldier or officer accused of murder would be sent to England for trial.”
