Episode notes

Welcome everyone to episode 6! This week, we jump into learning about the powers of Congress. We'll talk about features in Article I (like the Necessary and Proper Clause, the Speech and Debate Clause, and legislative vs. non-legislative powers) as well as those things not included in that article (like the nondelegation doctrine). As far as cases, this episode will walk through McCulloch v. Maryland, INS v. Chadha, Mistretta v. United States... and you'll also get a brief introduction to U.S. Term Limits Inc. v. Thornton and United States v. Comstock. At 50 minutes, this podcast is densely packed!
