Which of the following best explains why Parliament repealed the Stamp Act in 1766?

A) Parliament agreed with the American colonists that the act was unfair.

B) Colonial legislators were threatening to impose their own taxes.

C) Colonists' boycotts of British goods were hurting British trade.

D) The British passed the Declaratory Act, which replaced it with a heavier tax.

C) Colonists boycotts of British goods were hurting British trade.

Explanation:

The Stamp Act was a tax that was passed by the British government that required a British stamp on all paper documents showing that citizens paid the appropriate tax. Colonists hated this tax, as they felt that it was unfair of the British parliament to pass a tax on the colonists without a colonial representative in the parliament to represent their views.

This resulted in the colonists boycotting British goods to show their displeasure. Ultimately, the British government got rid of this law because it was losing them money.

I wouldn't say A, and I wouldn't say B, Which leaves B or C, I would say that Colonists boycotted goods, which was common at those times.

My Choice would be C.
