I am not sure which rule you are asking about, since there were many rules and laws that southern congressmen passed over the years. Perhaps you are referring to the "Gag Rules" which were passed during the 1830s; they were passed by pro-slavery members of congress, who wanted to prevent anti-slavery proponents from discussing any petitions, or proposing any legislation, that demanded an end to slavery.
