  • No, in fact, it would be very difficult for Congress to get anything done without the implied powers. Many of the expressed powers of Congress are very specific, and the Constitution does not spell out how these powers may be used and enforced. The Necessary and Proper clause gives a bit more "wiggle room," if you will, and allows Congress to more easily use the powers outlined in the Constitution.
