One of the most important functions of Congress is in facilitating trade among the States and between the United States and foreign countries. The intent of the so-called commerce clause was to compel Congress to only lower barriers to trade, in the attempt to achieve a no-restrictions free market among the States. One way Congress can facilitate trade is by setting and maintaining a set of national weights and measures.
