Answer:

1.The Stamp Act

2.The Proclamation of 1763

Step-by-step explanation:

The Act resulted in violent protests in America and the colonists argued that there should be no taxation without representation and that it went against the British constitution to be forced to pay a tax to which they had not agreed through representation in Parliament.

They were angry because they taxed the colonists without representing them in making the new law.
