The U.S. Constitution grants Congress extremely limited powers regarding money and commerce. By law, Congress may coin money and pay debts only from silver and gold. Fiat, paper currencies are expressly illegal under the U.S. Constitution. Congress is expressly forbidden to regulate intrastate commerce. Congress may only regulate commerce between the States in a manner that facilitates trade and breaks down barriers to commerce.

In Wickard vs Filburn (1942), for example, the Court upheld a $117 penalty imposed on a Ohio farmer for growing wheat on 12 more acres than he was permitted to under the Agricultural Adjustment Act.For example, could the Violence Against Women Act provision invalidated in Morrison be enforceable in U. S. Territories (such as Guam or Puerto Rico), even though it can't be in the fifty states? It would be silly to say, for example, the "power to establish post offices" did not include the power to print postage stamps or pay mail carriers. But does it also include the power to advertise the joys of stamp collecting on television? How broadly or narrowly should the enumerated powers be read? Should the "Necessary and Proper Clause" be interpreted as authorizing actions rationally related to one of the listed powers, or only actions "necessary" to carrying out a listed power?

Expressed powers of Congress are the powers provided to this branch of government by the US Constitution. Three examples of Congress' expressed powers related to money and commerce include the ability to create and collect taxes, the ability to create treaties, and the ability to create interstate and foreign trade policies.

The Borrowing Power, The Commerce Power, and the Bankruptcy Power are all relating to money and commerce.
