Enumerated
These powers are enumerated by Article 1, Section 8 of the United Constitution. It grants Congress the ability to declare war, and the coining and regulation money

Yes, that's correct. Enumerated powers are those specifically listed in the Constitution, such as the power to declare war, regulate commerce, and levy taxes. These powers are granted to Congress in Article I, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution.
