The Continental Congress authorized a committee to write a Declaration of Independence to set forth clearly to England what the problems were.
The five men who comprised the committee were Thomas Jefferson (Virginia), Benjamin Franklin (Pennsylvania), John Adams (Massachusetts), Robert R. Livingston (New York) and Roger Sherman (Connecticut).
The members of the Second Continental Congress appointed a committee of five and asked them to write the Declaration of Independence.
