Last year in December the Sons of Liberty threw chests of British tea into the Boston harbor. This action is now known as the Boston Tea Party and was in response to Parliament passing the Tea Act. After the Boston Tea Party, Parliament passed the Coercive Acts and shut down the Boston harbor, which is the busiest harbor in America. I have helped to draft the Fairfax Resolves in objection. The Fairfax Resolves outlines all of our problems and objections with the Parliament at the time.
