collect income tax
16th amendment
The sixteenth amendment allows Congress to impose income taxes in their current form.
Article I of the US Constitution gives Congress this power.
The U.S. Constitution grants Congress the power to declare war, specifically outlined in Article I, Section 8. This provision establishes that while the President can act as Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces, only Congress has the authority to officially declare war. This separation of powers is intended to prevent unilateral military action by the executive branch.
