Elastic Clause
The Elastic Clause is the clause in the Constitution that gives Congress the most general non specific power. It is in Section 8 of the Constitution.
Article I of the Constitution outlines how Congress is to be organized and its powers. Most specifically, Sections 7 & 8 list the powers of Congress. In addition, Article IV Clause 2 (the Supremacy Clause) provides that laws passed by Congress have precedence over other laws passed by State and local governments.
The elastic clause. Better known as the necessary and proper clause, gives congress the power to stretch their law making abilities. For example, it is written that congress has a right to raise an army or navy. Because there were no planes back then there was no mention of an air force. But the elastic clause implies that congress has the power to make an air force
