∙ 13y agoThe "necessary and proper" clause is the last clause in Article I, Section 8. The preceding clauses of that section give Congress certain express powers. Then it states:
"To make all laws 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."
The Constitution does not create laws. It creates powers to make laws.

∙ 11y agoThe specific powers and duties of the U.S. Congress are enumerated in several places in the Constitution. The most important listing of these powers is in Article I, Section 8, which identifies in 17 paragraphs the many important powers of Congress. The last paragraph grants to Congress the flexibility to create laws or otherwise to act where the Constitution does not give it the explicit authority to act. This clause is known as the Necessary and Proper Clause, although it is not a federal power, in itself.
