The specific powers granted to Congress in the Constitution are known as "enumerated powers." These powers are outlined primarily in Article I, Section 8, and include the ability to levy taxes, regulate commerce, declare war, and maintain armed forces, among others. Additionally, Congress has the authority to make laws necessary for executing these powers, often referred to as implied powers.
