Continental Congress on June 7 met at the Pennsylvania state house and Mr. Richard Henry who was then the Virginia delegate introduced a motion calling for the colonial independence.

Congress then appointed a 5 man committee including Thomas Jefferson(Virginia) and John Adam(Massachusetts), Roger Sherman(Connecticut), Robert R. Livingstone(New York) and Benjamin Franklin(Pennsylvania) to draft a statement formally on the rational grounds to break with Britain.
