Question 4 • 8th Grade US History & Geography A
The Intolerable Acts were passed by Britain in response to the Boston Tea Party in 1773, when colonists dumped tea into Boston Harbor to protest British policies. The acts punished Massachusetts and restricted its self-government. The Boston Massacre and Stamp Act protests were earlier events, but they did not directly lead to the Intolerable Acts.
