Answer:

Should be true

Step-by-step explanation:

The main task of the Daughters of Liberty was to protest the Stamp Act and Townshend Acts through aiding the Sons of Liberty in boycotts and non-importation movements prior to the outbreak of the Revolutionary War.

The Daughters of Liberty consisted of women who displayed their loyalty by participating in boycotts of British goods following the passage of the Townshend Acts; they significantly reduced household consumption of imported goods by producing large quantities of homespun cloth.
