In McCullough v. Maryland (1891), the US Congress defined the scope of legislative power. During this monumental case, the Supreme Court found that Congress had “implied powers” (powers not expressly listed in the Constitution) and that the Necessary and Proper Clause gave them the power to establish a National Bank.
President Jackson did not agree because he felt the finding was unconstitutional and had the ability to greatly overpower the federal government. Jackson vetoed the bill refusing to acknowledge warnings that doing so would threaten his re-election chances.
