The Declaration of Independence A Study In The History of Political
Ideas By Carl Becker THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE IT is often
forgotten that the document which we know as the Declaration of
Independence is not the official act by which the Continental
Congress voted in favor of separation from Great Britain. June 7,
1776, Richard Henry Lee, on behalf of the Virginia delegation,
submitted to the Continental Congress three resolutions, of which
the first declared that "these United Colonies are, and of right
ought to be, free and independent States, that they are absolved
from all allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political
connection between them and the State of Great Britain is, and
ought to be, totally dissolved."
