Benjamin Franklin wrote the letter that had to do with the taxation without representation on 1754 to Governor William Shirley of Massachusetts.
<h3>What is meant by taxation without representation?</h3>
This was the term that was used to refer to the fact that the people on the American colonies were being taxed too much in a government that they were not a part of. They felt that it was unfair that they would be made to pay so much but in the British parliament they had no one that was representing them there.
Hence we would say that the taxation without representation was something that was written in the year 1754.
