1 How does the Constitution fix the problems of the Articles of Confederation? Problem #1 Congress did not have enough power under the Articles Could not raise an army, collect taxes, regulate trade interstate or foreign trade, force states to follow laws. Solution to Problem #1 The Constitution gives Congress Enumerated powers. An Enumerated power is one that is specifically listed. Example: Congress has the power to raise taxes. The Constitution also gives provides the Congress with wiggle room General Welfare clause says that congress has the power to make laws that provide for the well being of it s citizens. Necessary and Proper clause Congress has the power to make laws necessary and proper to enact enumerated powers. Problem #2 The states had more power than the national/central/federal government. 1
2 Federalism The US Constitution divides power between the Federal/National government and state governments. Some powers are given specifically to the Federal government (declare war, make treaties, etc.). These are called Delegated powers. Some powers are given specifically to the states (regulate education, issue licenses). These are called Reserved powers. Some powers are shared (raise taxes). These are called concurrent powers. The Supremacy Clause The Supremacy clause says that the US constitution is the Supreme law of the land. States can not make laws that conflict with laws in the constitution. Nor can states ignores made by congress or make laws that conflict w/laws made by congress. Problem #3 The Framers are still afraid that the National Government will have too much power. Separation of Powers Each branch is given different powers/jobs. That way no one branch will have too much power. 2
3 Checks and Balances Each branch is given the power to limit or Check the power of the other two branches. The President can veto or reject laws made by congress. The Congress can impeach (remove from office) the President. No one branch can take over because the other two have some control over them. The Constitution creates a Limited Government. The power of the Federal Government is limited to the powers granted in the Constitution. The Government can not do what the people have not authorized in the Constitution. 3
