Explanation:

7.3)

The Lee Resolution aimed to declare independence, establish a colonial union, and pursue foreign relations. Creating a U.S. Parliament, creating the Continental Army, appointing Washington as head of Congress are not goals of the Lee Resolution.

Reasons for public support of independence: British port closure hurting trade, "Common Sense" challenging British authority, and Continental Army successes. The British attacking NYC, King's decree (not real), and Adams' tour (not a main reason) are not correct.

Colonies communicated via their legislatures. Printed newspapers were for info, town meetings local, Continental Congress was a meeting body not daily communication.

Answer:

• plan to pursue foreign relations
• write a declaration of independence
• establish a union of the colonies
