EDIT: Hi, Kiki here!

They say that 5 people were involved in the Declaration of Independence. As far as I know, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, and Thomas Jefferson were all responsible to draft it. However, John Adams and Benjamin Franklin left it to Thomas because he was the best writer of them all.

Thomas Jefferson did most of it, but Franklin and Adams made a few minor edits. So those people were responsible for that..

Please note that there are multiple questions about this, and resources that help. XOXOXOXO from the awesomest....
