A war with Britain. Tempers were rising and they representatives knew that Britain would not just let the colonies go.
In 1765, the Stamp Act Congress issued the Declaration of Rights and Grievances. This document was a response to the Stamp Act imposed by Britain, asserting that colonists could not be taxed without their consent, as they were not represented in Parliament. The Congress, consisting of representatives from various American colonies, sought to articulate the rights of the colonists and protest against British taxation policies.
The declaration of rights and grievances drawn up by the First Continental Congress is known as the "Declaration of Rights and Grievances." Adopted in October 1774, it outlined the colonies' objections to British policies and asserted their rights, including the demand for representation in Parliament. This document served as a pivotal step toward colonial unity and resistance against British rule.

The Stamp Act (1765)
The declaration of rights and grievances drawn up by the First Continental Congress is known as the "Declaration of Rights and Grievances." Adopted in October 1774, it outlined the colonies' objections to British policies and asserted their rights, including the demand for representation in Parliament. This document served as a pivotal step toward colonial unity and resistance against British rule.
The original Declaration of Rights and Grievances was written by the Stamp Act Congress in 1765. It raised fourteen objections to British policies and called upon King George and Parliament to address the complaints of the colonists.Another document called the "Declaration and Resolves of the First Continental Congress" was written by the First Continental Congress 9 years later in 1774, and is also referred to as the Declaration of Rights and Grievances. This document was written in response to the Intolerable Acts (Coercive Acts) and more closely resembled the grievances of the Declaration of Independence (1776).
