What act required the colonial cities that gave foodclothingand house british troops?

The Quartering Act required colonial cities to provide food, clothing, and housing for British troops stationed in the colonies. Enacted in 1765 and later modified in 1774, this act aimed to reduce the costs of maintaining a standing army in North America. Colonists resented the act, viewing it as an infringement on their rights and privacy, which contributed to rising tensions leading up to the American Revolution.
