The elastic clause is the clause that Congress uses to get more power.
The Elastic Clause gives Congress the freedom to do what they must to carry out its power. Two historic uses of the Elastic Clause came with the establishment of the National Bank and also with the Louisiana Purchase.
The 'necessary and proper' clause is an expressed power that gives way to an implied power. The federal government to use it to justify acts that are not specifically sanctioned in the Constitution.
The Elastic Clause does not give Congress the right to increase tax rates. However, it did allow them to print coin and paper money.
According to The supreme Court in McCulloch v. Maryland (1819) said that Article I, Section 8. The "Necessary and Proper" Clause gave Congress the power to establish a national bank.
No, in fact, it would be very difficult for Congress to get anything done without the implied powers. Many of the expressed powers of Congress are very specific, and the Constitution does not spell out how these powers may be used and enforced. The Necessary and Proper clause gives a bit more "wiggle room," if you will, and allows Congress to more easily use the powers outlined in the Constitution.
The elastic cause is another name for the Necessary and Proper Clause that is found in Article One of the U.S. Constitution. "The elastic clause gives Congress powers found in no other part of the Constitution."
The Supreme Court case that increased national power through a broad interpretation of the Necessary and Proper Clause is McCulloch v. Maryland (1819). In this landmark decision, the Court ruled that Congress had the authority to create a national bank, affirming that implied powers could be derived from its enumerated powers. This ruling established a precedent for a more expansive interpretation of federal authority, thereby enhancing the power of the national government over the states.

The "elastic clause" is the colloquial term for Article I, Section 8 of the US Constitution that enumerates a list of specific powers granted Congress, including the power to borrow money, regulate commerce, create and value currency, enact tribunals inferior to the Supreme Court, declare war, establish and regulate the military, and a host of other things (see Related Links for the full text of Article I).While this, alone, grants Congress enormous power, the controversial part of Section 8, Clause 18, also enables the legislature:"To make all laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into execution the foregoing powers, and all other powers vested by this Constitution in the government of the United States, or in any department or officer thereof."Because this paragraph is vague, it appears to empower Congress to take almost any action without establishing guidelines for the use or limitations of power, or specifics way of determining what makes particular actions "necessary."Other terms that refer to Article I, Section 8, clause 18 are "Necessary and Proper Clause," "Basket Clause," "Coefficient Clause," and the "Sweeping Clause." These are all synonymous.Many parts of the Constitution have descriptive names that refer to the purpose of specific provisions.
