Parliament raised taxes to get money because England was in debt for helping the colonists win the French and Indian war.

Great Britain was fighting a costly war with France and needed money. They also needed money to support the soldiers who were protecting the colonists from Indian and French attack in the 7 years war.
Hope that helped! :D
