∙ 12y agoNo, it is not. The Tea Act was a tax passed by Parliament in order to pay for the debt Britain acquired during the French and Indian War. The Boston Tea Party was the response to it. Basically, the colonists refused to pay taxes without representation in Parliament. They demanded British sailors bringing the tea to the colonies to take it back to England, and they refused. Because of this, the colonists dressed up as Native Americans and dumped the tea, and ONLY the tea of those ships into the ocean.
