False. The resolution for independence was not introduced to Congress by Thomas Jefferson. The resolution for independence, commonly known as the Lee Resolution, was introduced by Richard Henry Lee of Virginia on June 7, 1776. Thomas Jefferson, however, was the primary author of the Declaration of Independence, which was adopted by Congress on July 4, 1776.
