In 1766, the British Parliament passed the Declaratory Act to repeal the Sugar Act and the Stamp Act, because it ended up hurting the British trade and they used this to save face. The Act stated that the rules were the same for the colonies than they were for Great Britain and that all laws made in Parliament were binding for the Thirteen Colonies.
