4x "To make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers, and all other Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any Department or Officer thereof." - Clause 18, Section 8 of Article I of the The United States Constitution Upon analyzing this portion of the Constitution, which of action would have been MOST likely to be a result of Clause 18? A The U.S. declared war on Japan on December 8,1941. B The U.S. Congress passed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act in 2017. 4x C The S10 C The 10 bill was redesigned in 2006 the first change since nearly 70 years.

Clause 18, Section 8 of Article I of the United States Constitution is known as the Necessary and Proper Clause, or the Elastic Clause. This clause gives Congress the power to pass all laws necessary and proper for carrying out the enumerated list of powers. The clause is often referred to as the "elastic clause" because it can be stretched to include implied powers not explicitly listed in the Constitution.<br /><br />Option A, the U.S. declaring war on Japan on December 8, 1941, is an action that falls under the power of Congress to declare war, but it is not an example of the Necessary and Proper Clause.<br /><br />Option B, the U.S. Congress passing the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act in 201 is an example of Congress exercising its power to lay and collect taxes, but again, it is not an example of the Necessary and Proper Clause.<br /><br />Option C, the redesign of the $10 bill in 2006, is not an action that would be taken by Congress under the Necessary and Proper Clause. It is a decision made by the U.S. Department of the Treasury and the U.S. Secret Service.<br /><br />Option D, the creation of the Civilian Conservation Corps as part of FDR's New Deal in 1933, is the most likely action to be a result of Clause 18. The New Deal was a series of programs and projects instituted during the Great Depression to restore prosperity to Americans. The Civilian Conservation Corps was a public work relief program that provided jobs in environmental conservation to young unmarried men. The creation of such a program would require Congress to pass laws that are necessary and proper for carrying out the program, which is what Clause 18 allows for.
