What was expected of the new colonists in the new quartering act passed as part of the coercive acts in 1774?

The new Quartering Act, part of the Coercive Acts of 1774, required colonists to provide housing and supplies to British troops stationed in America. This included offering food, bedding, and shelter, often in private homes if public accommodations were insufficient. Colonists were expected to comply with these demands, which many viewed as an infringement on their rights and an imposition of British authority, further escalating tensions leading to the American Revolution.
