![“[The necessary and proper clause] neither enlarges any power specifically granted; nor is it a grant of any new power to Congress; But it is merely a declaration, for the removal of all uncertainty, that the means of carrying into execution those otherwise granted are included in the grant.” quote by Joseph Story](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/206/joseph-story-11919_clauses_the-necessary-and-proper-clause-neither_1577673.jpg)
