in june 1776, thomas jefferson wrote the first draft of the declaration of independence, and it was formally adopted by congress on july 4 of that year.
in june 1776, thomas jefferson wrote the first draft of the declaration of independence, it was formally adopted by congress on july 4 of that year.
in june 1776, thomas jefferson wrote the first draft of the declaration of independence that was formally adopted by congress on july 4 of that year.
in june 1776, thomas jefferson wrote the first draft of the declaration of independence, it was formally adopted by congress; on july 4 of that year.

The sentence that is written correctly is,

In June 1776, Thomas Jefferson wrote the first draft of the Declaration of Independence, and it was formally adopted by Congress on July 4 of that year.

In order to avoid a run-on sentence, it is important to seperate the two ideas. This is why the comma and the "and" are so important. Without the "and," the sentence would be best broken up by a semicolon.

Option A. The following is the correct way to write the sentence:

"In June 1776, Thomas Jefferson wrote the first draft of the Declaration of Independence, and it was formally adopted by Congress on July 4 of that year."

Explanation:

When writing is important to consider the fluency of each of the sentences being written, as the rhythm and flow of the words and the sentences, are what makes a paragraph easy to understand. The correct way to write the sentence given in the question is the first option, as not only has a correct flow of the words, has no grammatical errors, and is clear, but also because the sentence is made up of two independent clauses ("Thomas Jefferson wrote the first draft of the Declaration of Independence", "It was formally adopted by Congress on July 4th of that year) and when using a conjunction to join the two clauses, the conjunction, in this case the word "and", needs to follow a comma. Therefore the correct way to write the sentence is:

"In June 1776, Thomas Jefferson wrote the first draft of the Declaration of Independence, and it was formally adopted by Congress on July 4 of that year."
