The action that caused this was Great Britain increased taxes on many items in the colonies.
By increasing the taxes, the American colonists will obtain lesser profit that they could keep for their own which put them in a desperate economic situation. So, this makes many people support the revolutionaries ideas to break free from the economic control of the british empire
