The Stamp Act congress was

a law passed in 1765 that placed

new duties on legal documents and

taxed newspapers, almanacs, playing

cards, and dice. In October 1765 nine

colonies sent delegates to what is now

know as the Stamp Act Congress. The

Stamp Act Congress was against the

Stamp Act. The delegates made petitions

to King George the third and to the

Parlaiment. They made the petitions to

get rid of the Stamp Act. So to tie it all up,

the Stamp Act Congress was a group of

people who didnt like the Stamp Act and

was trying to get rid of it.
