The Intolerable Acts or Coercive Acts
Explanation:
Measures were taken which affected the "Colonists"
British soldiers could be judged for crimes in England instead of Massachusetts
Citizens in the colonies had to accept the quartering of soldiers in their homes in times of war and peace
The Boston Harbor was closed until the colonists paid back the king for the tea that was destroyed during the Boston Tea Party
The right to hold town meetings (meetings that citizens could participate in to voice their opinions and make laws for their communities) was strongly restricted
