Declaration of Independence Road Trip Spurs Press Coverage

As you may already know, approximately 200 copies of the Declaration of Independence were originally created on July 4, 1776 to spread the word among the 13 colonies of independence from the British Empire. Now, through support from Pearson Foundation, this powerfully important document is on tour through the "Declaration of Independence Road Trip" and recently made a stop at Anderson High School in Northwest Austin Friday. The document is one of only 26 surviving copies of the Declaration of Independence and predates the original, hand-written and signed Declaration of Independence housed at the National Archives in Washington, D.C.
