Implied powers
The federal government's implied powers are those not explicitly stated in the Constitution but are inferred from the expressed powers granted to Congress. These powers allow Congress to enact laws deemed necessary and proper for executing its enumerated responsibilities, as established by the Necessary and Proper Clause in Article I, Section 8. Implied powers enable the government to adapt to changing circumstances and address issues not foreseen by the framers of the Constitution. Examples include the establishment of a national bank and the regulation of interstate commerce.
