The Act you are referring to is commonly known as the Sugar Act. It was passed by the Parliament of Great Britain in 1764 and officially titled the Revenue Act of 1764. The Act aimed to increase revenue in the American colonies by placing taxes on imported sugar and other goods. The Sugar Act was one of the many acts imposed by the British government on the American colonies, which eventually fueled tensions and contributed to the buildup to the American Revolution.
