The Congress shall have Power - To make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers, and all other Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any Department or Officer thereof.

What stretches the power of government?

elastic clause.Implied powers of congress are the powers that the legislative branch has that are not specifically listed in the Constitution. Implied powers come from and depend upon the expressed powers of the government. For example, the power to draft people into the military is implied by the power of congress to raise an army and navy. The basis for the implied powers comes from the necessary and proper clause of the Constitution, Article 1, Section 8. It is also called the elastic clause because it "stretches" the power of the government. Implied powers have helped the government expand its authority to meet the many problems and situations that the Founding Fathers could not have forseen.
