Continental Association born from Boston Port Bill
The article traces the Boston Port Bill of 1774 and the rise of the Continental Association. It notes widespread demonstrations in Boston and other colonies, the shift toward nonimportation and nonexportation, debates in Congress led by figures like John Jay and Samuel Chase, and the plan to enforce a boycott with local committees while Parliament rebuffed the measures.
