What was the primary aim of the Suffolk Resolves during the First Continental Congress?

The Suffolk Resolves were adopted during the First Continental Congress in 1774 and primarily aimed to address colonial grievances against the British government. They specifically called for the repeal of the Intolerable Acts, which were punitive measures imposed by Britain in response to colonial unrest, particularly the Boston Tea Party. The Resolves also encouraged colonists to boycott British goods as a form of economic protest. This approach was rooted in the belief that organized resistance against unjust laws could lead to reforms and a restoration of colonial rights without pushing for full independence at that moment. The Suffolk Resolves effectively mobilized colonial resistance by advocating for collective action through economic pressure against British policies.
