Answer:

were a group of colonial elites who exchanged ideas and information about resistance to the Sugar, Currency, and Stamp Acts.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correspondence committees that were established during colonial America were created by Samueal Adams to establish communication between all the leaders of the thirteen colonies who believed that it was possible to break ties with England and form an independent country. These committees were formed by a group of intellectuals and men with socially prominent positions, who made up the elites of each colony. They exchanged ideas about the resistance of Sugar, Currency, and Stamp Acts.
