Benjamin Franklin proposed a plan for uniting the seven colonies that greatly exceeded the scope of the congress. However, after considerable debate, and modifications proposed by Thomas Hutchinson who would later become Governor of Massachusetts, it was passed unanimously. The plan was submitted as a recommendation but was rejected by both King George II and the legislatures of the individual seven colonies since it would remove some of their existing powers.
The Albany Plan of Union was presented by Benjamin Franklin at the Albany Congress. This plan was important because it foreshadowed the Articles of Confederation that were going to be developed later. The Albany Plan of Union provided a loose confederation with a president general. It also had limited authority to levy taxes. The plan was well-liked among the delegates, but neither the Crown nor the colonial assemblies approved it.
