The colonists protest passage of the Stamp Act because they believed that without representation in the Parliament, they should not be taxed.  

Option C

<u>Explanation</u>:

The "Stamp Act" was passed in the year "1765" by British Parliament. According to this act, the colonists were compelled to buy stamps for every official document they acquire. Every printable material was to be printed on "stamped paper" from London. All this was done to gather tax directly from "colonists" to pay for debts of the "French and Indian War".

The colonists believed that if they were to pay taxes then they first want representation in the Parliament, but this was disagreed by the British. Hence, the colonists started opposing the "Stamp Act" and later in the year 1766, the Parliament voted to abolish it.

U.S GOVERNMENT HISTORY HELP
ehidna [41]
1. The judicial review checks if the law passed by the congress is constitutional. This limits the power of the congress without it and it would have unlimited power, and could for example re-introduce slavery. The congress won't do it, because they know that the law would be deemed unconstitutional. 

2.  The president is foremost a Chief of State - that also means the Head of State. This means that the president represents the US, for example during the meeting of the Heads of State. 


3. The US Civil Service is the workforce of people working for the Government in non-military positions.They are employed, and not elected, so they don't have terms. Those positions include administrative positions in the government. 

4.The Cabinet is the Council of the heads of the departments which is the body that the President works with most directly, and it advises the president on their relevant areas of expertise.
