The Continental Congress declared that the British Parliament had begun to bind the people of America by statutes in the Declaration of Rights and Grievances on October 14, 1774. This document was a response to the Intolerable Acts and expressed the colonial view that Parliament lacked the authority to impose laws on them without representation. The Congress emphasized their right to self-governance and opposition to what they perceived as unjust laws.
