Explain the quote "No taxation without representation"

It meant that american citizens didn't want to be taxed unsless someone from their community represented them while making the tax decisions.

Taxation without representation is the act of being taxed by an authority without the benefit of having elected representatives. The term became part of an anti-British slogan when the original 13 American colonies aimed to revolt against the British Empire. Taxation without representation occurs when a taxing authority, such as the government, imposes taxes its citizens and other entities but fails to provide them with a political voice through elected representatives. This was one of the main causes of the American Revolution. Those living in the colonies believed that if they were to pay taxes, then they should have adequate representation - and therefore, a political voice - in the British Parliament. And it still happens in some places today.
