a. Enumerated Powers: Powers specifically listed in the Constitution of the United States.
b. Implied Powers: Powers used to carry out the expressed powers.
a. Enumerated Powers: Powers specifically listed in the Constitution of the United States.
To find the enumerated powers, one can refer to Article I, Section 8 of the United States Constitution. This section of the Constitution outlines the specific powers granted to the Congress, which include areas such as regulating commerce, declaring war, and levying taxes.
b. Implied Powers: Powers used to carry out the expressed powers.
To understand implied powers, we must look at the Necessary and Proper Clause, also known as the Elastic Clause, found in Article I, Section 8, Clause 18 of the Constitution. This clause allows Congress to make laws that are necessary and proper for carrying out its enumerated powers. Implied powers are derived from this clause and are not specifically listed in the Constitution. They enable Congress to take further actions beyond the enumerated powers, as long as those actions are deemed necessary and related to the effective exercise of the enumerated powers. This allows Congress to adapt and address unforeseen circumstances and changing needs of the nation.
