mar 18, 1766 - Repeal of Stamp Act and Passage to Declaratory Act

Description:

British Rationale: The Stamp Act wasn’t working because the colonists didn't buy goods. So they decided to repeal it, but reserve the right to tax the colonists.

Colonist reaction: They were rejoicing over the repeal and ignored the declaratory act. They focused on the positive because their efforts had finally paid off.
