Re: National Institute Of Standards And Technology Expressed Powers

National Institute Of Standards And Technology is a non-regulatory agency of the United States Department of Commerce.
It located in united states.

And as you want to know about Expressed Powers of National Institute Of Standards And Technology, so here I am providing you some knowledge of that:

Expressed Powers:
Regulate a Post Office

Regulate commerce

Raise an Army and Navy

Lay taxes

Borrow money

Establish naturalization laws

Appropriate funds and pass laws

For more details of expressed power
Expressed implied

Expressed and Implied Powers
Article I, Section 8 of the US Constitution specifically outlines the powers granted to Congress. These powers are called “expressed powers” because they are specifically stated in the Constitution. There are also many significant things Congress does that are not specifically outlined in the Constitution. Congress takes these actions because time and the courts have agreed that Congress also has “implied powers,” powers that are related to the expressed powers but not specifically listed.

Activity 1
The following powers are some of the expressed and implied powers granted to Congress. Under each listed expressed power, write the implied power(s) from the list below and a brief explanation of the relationship you see between them.

Implied Powers:
Illegalize mail fraud – institute a draft – regulate the sale of certain things (drugs or gasoline) - establish a minimum wage – punish tax evaders - regulate/control immigration – ban discrimination in public and work places – control what can be mailed (alcohol, weapons) - conduct oversight hearings of executive actions - establish the Federal Reserve System (an independent agency that controls the money supply)

Expressed Powers
1. Regulate a Post Office (Article I, Section 8 [7])


2. Regulate commerce (business) (Article I, Section 8 [3])

3. Raise an Army and Navy (Article I, Section 8 [12-14])

4. Lay taxes (Article I, Section 8 [1])

5. Borrow money (Article I, Section 8 [2])


6. Establish naturalization laws (Article I, Section 8 [4])


7. Appropriate funds and pass laws (Article I, Section 8 [1, 18])


Activity 2
One of the expressed powers found in Article I, Section 8 [5] is the power to fix the Standard of Weights and Measures. NIST, the National Institute of Standards and Technology is the government agency responsible for setting the standards of many things beyond the weight of a pound, the exact time of day, and monitoring retail motor-fuel dispensers (gasoline pumps at gas stations). Visit the NIST website, what else does NIST do?



Activity 3
What is Congress doing lately? Using the internet, go to the reputable news source of your choice and find three stories reporting on the actions of Congress. Read the stories then write (1) their headlines, dates and sources and (2) if the actions are examples of expressed or implied powers in action.
