JOHN QUINCY ADAMS AND THE GAG RULE, 1835-1850

At the start of the 1836 session, the gag rule was passed, effectively forbidding Congress from addressing the issue of slavery until it was rescinded. Adams saw the effort to gag the abolitionist petitioners as a violation of their constitutional rights and began a campaign that eventually played a part in the southern secession.
