Answer:

The issuing of the Stamp Act by the British government is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sons of liberty was a secret organisation formed to protest the unjust policies of British government. Before the American revolution they had chapters in all the thirteen colonies. They were first formed in 1765 as a protest group in response to the stamp act. The first group was formed in Boston and was called Loyal Nine. Later similar groups were formed in New York and Connecticut. Issac Barre is believed to be the person who gave them the name "Sons of Liberty" during his speech in British Parliament. The sons of Liberty used to have secret meetings to avoid arrest.
