Home > Suffolk Resolves

The Suffolk Resolves was a declaration made in September, 1774 by the leaders of Suffolk County, Massachusetts, of which Boston is the major city. The Suffolk Resolves denounced the " Intolerable Acts" (or "Coercive Acts") passed British Parliament. The Suffolk drafters called for the formation of militia units and also demanded a trade embargo on with Great Britain.

In another of his famous rides, Paul Revere delivered a copy of the Resolves to the First Continental Congress in Philadelphia, where it was endorsed by the Congress on September 17.
