No, that is one of the Legislative Branch's (Congress) expressed powers under Article I of the Constitution.

Congressional powers not expressed are implied powers.
Implied powers allow Congress to execute anything they see as necessary and proper, and it doesn't need to fall under the expressed powers of the Constitution.
The powers granted to the federal government under the US Constitution include expressed powers and implied powers. Expressed powers include the ability to lay and collect taxes, borrow moneys on the credit of the United States, issue patents and copyrights, and declare war.
All expressed powers are states in the constitution. If ou see a power listed under the Executive or Judicial Branch, Congress does not have that power. Of course, Congress does have the authority to grant new powers so long as it does not violate the constitution or the system of checks and balances.Congress does not have the power to change policies within the Air Force or Army. That power resides with the President.
The power to tax is an expressed power of Congress and the power to declare laws unconstitutional is not. Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution is a list of Congress' powers. The first sentence of the first paragraph begins: "The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Inposts and Excises, . . ." The Constitution does not address the issue of declaring laws unconstitutional at all. The Supreme Court decided that judges in the federal courts had the authority to determine whether federal laws were allowable under the Constitution in 1804 in the case of Marbury vs. Madison, when they decided a law had no force or effect because it was not proper under the Constitution.
The source of implied powers for Congress is the 'necessary and proper' clause of the Constitution. The President's implied powers come from the 'general welfare' clause.The source of implied powers under the United States Constitution is the Necessary and Proper Clause. The Constitution was ratified in 1788.
