Congressional Powers

The Constitution grants Congress specific enumerated powers, listed mainly in Article I, like the power to tax, regulate interstate and international trade, coin money, and declare war, along with implied powers, additional powers reasonably necessary to carry out those enumerated ones, drawn from the Constitution's own "necessary and proper" clause. Congress does not have unlimited lawmaking power: it can only act within these granted powers, and courts can strike down a law that genuinely exceeds them.
