The 16th amendment to the Constitution gave Congress the power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration. The amendment was passed by Congress on July 12, 1909, and it was ratified on February 3, 1913.
