Sometimes derided as "Czar Reed", he has a greater influence on the agenda and activities of the House of Representatives, more than any other speaker before. He increased the power of the President by establishing the "Reed Rule", which limited the ability of the minority to prevent the formation of a quorum. Reed helped pass the Lodge Bill, which seeks to protect the right to vote of African Americans in the southern United States, but it was not passed in the Senate and never became law. He opposed the Spanish-American War and resigned from Congress in 1899 .
