Answer 1

Ddddddddddddddddddddd

Answer 2

The correct answer is B) share news among the colonies.

The statement that BEST describes the purpose of the Committees of Correspondence was to share news among the colonies and to keep in touch with similar committees in other colonies.

Boston was the first one to have a Committee of Correspondence, in 1764. In 1765, New York had its committee. It was until 1773 that the Virginia House of Burgesses proposed every colony should have one to keep the colonies informed. They served as a communication channel to make decisions under the incremental problems the colonies had with the British monarchy.
