=The Declaration of Independence=

United States Declaration of Independence is a statement of the thirteen American colonies. It was signed on July 4, 1776. This day they celebrate every year. They celebrate with firework, parades, barbecues, carnivals, fairs, picnics, concerts, baseball games, family reunions, political speeches and ceremonies, and various other public and private events celebrating the history, government, and traditions of the United States. This is a very big day for all. Fifty-six people signed the Declaration. They signed because they wanted to end the war with Great Britain. John Adams, Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin wrote that the Declaration had been signed by Congress on July 4, 1776. Here you can see the copy of the Declaration of Independence, and all the signs. The next section is a list of charges against King George III: He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good. He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them. He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us.

John Adams. One of the man that signed. Thomas Jefferson. Another man that signed. Benjamin Franklin.
