Why did the Stamp Act Congress meet in 1765?

The Stamp Act Congress met in 1765 so representatives from the colonies could discuss a response to Parliament’s new taxes, especially the Stamp Act. They argued that the colonies should not be taxed without representation in Parliament. The meeting was not to approve the taxes or form a new government, so C, “to discuss how to respond to the new taxes,” is correct.
