The Port of Boston was closed in 1774 when the Boston Committee of Correspondents invited the colonies to stop trading with England. But the merchants did not want to participate in the drastic measure and instead, suggested a <em>continental Congress</em>.
A convention was held in Philadelphia In September of 1774, where twelve colonies send delegates. Among the delegates in attendance, were Samuel Adams, George Washington, and John Dickinson.
Among the actions taken by the Congress, we find:
-Joseph Galloway Plan of Union to create an American Parliament.
-Suffolk Resolves voted for the majority of the colonies.
-The Association, that established a boycott of importation, exportation, and consumption.
-The Declaration of Rights and Grievances sent to King George III.
