How does congress use the elastic clause to expand its legeslative powers?
The "necessary and proper" clause has been a device for national government to influence state policy making by giving or withholding money. An example is the No Child Left Behind act. The department of education has issued rules about testing and school standards to measure student proficiency. Schools that did not reach these standards set by the DEA are at risk for losing federal funding. Utah risked losing federal funding by subordinating requirements to state policy. They are now in it because they could not function without federal support. Another example is highway funding. If states did not up their legal drinking age to twenty one, the government would not support the funding of highways.
