What happened when King Charles I called a meeting of Parliament in 1628 to raise new taxes for wars against France and Spain? Parliament approved the king's request, but created a Petition of Rights that would require their consent for future tax decisions. Parliament decided to limit the king's power by creating a Petition of Rights that stated their consent was necessary before raising taxes. Parliament rejected the king's request, and because the king could not fund the military, England lost the war to France and Spain. Parliament voted to deny the king's request, but the king dismissed Parliament's decision and taxed the English citizens anyway.
