The right to petition, as established in the English Bill of Rights, empowers citizens to express grievances and seek redress from the government, thereby holding the monarch accountable to the people. This mechanism creates a channel for public dissent and criticism, discouraging arbitrary rule and potential abuses of power. By allowing individuals to formally request changes or challenge decisions, it ensures that the monarch must consider the will of the populace, fostering a more balanced and representative governance. Ultimately, this right reinforces the principle of rule of law and protects individual liberties against autocratic tendencies.

The Gag Rule meant that Congress refused to hear petitions related to slavery and the slave trade, and all such petitions were tabled for about a decade. The rule or resolution was partly implemented to reduce "junk mail".Americans revolted against the Gag Resolution, claiming they had the right to petition Congress and that the gag rule attacked their fundamental constitutional rights
