Let's make this clear: Patriots did NOT form the Congress. The colonies agreed to send representatives to decide how to respond to British actions. Moderates, who did not want outright revolution and independence, were in control because they were the majority, not the patriots.
First Continental Congress: a meeting of colonial delegates in Philadelphia to decide how to respond to the closing of Boston Harbor, increased taxes, and abuses of authority by the British government; delegates petitioned King George II, listing the freedoms they believed colonists should enjoy. Found all of this in a textbook called: United States History: Independence to 1914
according to my social studies book, it says that they decided to send a petition to king george III.
The 2nd Congress established the Continental army and chose George Washington as its commander in chief. A committee that included Thomas Jefferson,John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, and George Washington drafted the Declaration of Independence.
