At the first continental congress, what significant action did delegates take against the british?

Answer 1

At the First Continental Congress, the significant action that the delegates took against the British was the order of a new boycott on British goods. In 1774, representatives of all the colonies except Georgia met in Philadelphia. This was called the First Continental Congress. At this meeting, most of the colonists insisted that they were loyal to England and that the problems could be worked out.

Answer 2

At the First Continental Congress, the delegates discussed boycotting British goods all together, but decided to send the Crown a list of their grievances in the hopes of getting the Intolerable Acts lifted.
