I would say C because it emphasizes the fact that its the king's fault that they are rebelling. Not 100% though, thats what I would answer.

The correct answer is to emphasize the wrongdoings by the King.

The Declaration of Independence was a document that resulted in America officially becoming free from British rule. In this document, Jefferson creates a list of grievances (complaints) that explain why the United States was breaking away from Great Britain.

Throughout this list of grievances, Jefferson constantly refers to "He" to show how King George III ruined the relationship between Great Britain and the United States. Some of these grievances including taxing the colonists without their consent, closing the Boston port, etc.
