well at first it was said that he didnt want to but everyone else decided that he was the best writer out of them all so he then decided that he would write the declaration of idependence

It was written because not many people had freedom so Thomas Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence for making freedom and independence.

Jefferson wished to persuade other colonists to join him in overthrowing British rule, and he succeeded.


He wanted the colonists to be aware of the kings tyranny and wanted the king to see that America was to be recognized as a free and independent country.
