Thomas Paine did not directly participate in the writing of the Declaration of Independence; however, his influential pamphlet "Common Sense," published in January 1776, played a crucial role in swaying public opinion toward independence from Britain. Paine's arguments for self-governance and the rejection of monarchical rule inspired many colonists and provided a philosophical foundation for the push for independence. His ideas helped create an environment that made the Declaration, drafted later that year, more palatable to the American public and the Continental Congress.
Thomas Paine's publication of Common Sense called for a manifesto to be published explaining why the American Colonies were forced to break ties with Britain. That manifesto was later published and is known as the Declaration of Independence. While Thomas Jefferson is credited with writing the Declaration of Independence, there is some evidence that Paine contributed significantly to its writing.
