Responses will vary. A sample response follows: The elastic clause is an implied power given to Congress that allows the chambers to stretch their powers to cover and make laws on many different topics. An example of Congress using this power is the passage of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. The Constitution does not discuss the issue of health care for Americans, however, Congress passed the law based on the needs seen in society, saying the new law was necessary and proper.
