Question

question 3
the united states constitution does not mention the power to use a draft, which requires certain people to enlist in the armed forces. however, congress has the power to use a draft because of which part of the constitution?
a the full faith and credit clause
b the elastic clause
c the commerce clause
d the supremacy clause

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The Elastic Clause (also known as the Necessary and Proper Clause) gives Congress the power to make laws that are "necessary and proper" for carrying out its enumerated powers. Since Congress has the power to raise and support armies (an enumerated power), using a draft (which helps in fulfilling that power) can be justified under the Elastic Clause. The Full Faith and Credit Clause deals with states' recognition of each other's laws. The Commerce Clause is about regulating interstate commerce. The Supremacy Clause establishes the Constitution as the supreme law.

Answer:

B. the Elastic Clause
