Correct answer choice is :


D) Declare their right to approve laws passed by Parliament on behalf of the colonies


Explanation:


The Congress had two main achievements. The first was a contract among the Territories to boycott British goods starting on December 1, 1774. The West Indies were frightened with a boycott unless the islands favored to non-importation of British assets. On December 1, 1774, the Continental Association was formed to boycott all communication with British goods. By changing the financial penalties put on the colonials, the members believed Britain would cancel its offensive Acts.
