The Congress order draft typically refers to the preliminary version of legislation or a resolution that is proposed in the U.S. Congress. This draft outlines the specific provisions, purposes, and impacts of the proposed law. It undergoes various stages of review, debate, and amendment before being finalized and voted on by Congress. Ultimately, if approved, it can become law after being signed by the President.

Yes, the power to have a military draft is considered an implied power of Congress. While the U.S. Constitution explicitly grants Congress the authority to raise and support armies (Article I, Section 8), the ability to enact a draft is derived from this power as a necessary means to fulfill that responsibility. The Supreme Court has upheld this interpretation, affirming that Congress can implement a draft to ensure national defense and military readiness.
