The First Contitential Congress had absolutely no political power. It did not have the ability to do anything. It was extremely important. It showed that the 13 colonies could cooperate for their mutual benefit. Previously each one had done its own thing. The dream of cooperating had become a reality. Even though the congress had no legal authority it gave the states the ability to speak with one voice. While England refused to listen to the petitions presented by that congress, the various state legislatures listened to the decrees of their national government.
