Which action is an example of an implied power of Congress?
a. passing a tax law b.establishing the Bank of the United States
c. fixing the standards of weights and measures
d. establishing post offices
e. declaring war



Answer :

The implied power of Congress would be B: establishing the Bank of the United States of America. Moreover, the "Elastic Clause" of the Constitution grants Congress power to pass unspecified laws "necessary and proper" for the exercise of its expressed powers, and since this is an unspecified law it is OK.
