Key Policies:
Repeal of the Stamp Act (1766): Rockingham bowed to pressure from British merchants, who were suffering from colonial boycotts, and repealed the Stamp Act.
Declaratory Act (1766): Even as the Stamp Act was repealed, this act asserted Parliament's authority to legislate for the colonies "in all cases whatsoever," leaving the door open for future conflict.
Legacy: Although the Stamp Act was repealed, the Declaratory Act maintained British control, and tensions between the colonies and Britain continued.
