Article I, section 8, clause 18 of the U.S. Constitution grants Congress the right, "To make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers and all other Powers vested by the Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any Department or Officer thereof." There has been debate since the charter's ratification about how far Congress can take this right. Some people fear that it gives Congress near unlimited power while others argue it only gives them the means necessary to carry out other constitutional laws.
