Answer:

TRUE

Step-by-step explanation:

The powers given explicitly to the federal government by the U.S. Constitution (more specifically, in Article I, Section 8) are called "Expressed powers." In this section, there's a total of 27 expressed powers, in which are included the power to regulate interstate and foreign commerce, raise and support armies, declare war, coin money, conduct foreign affairs, define and punish piracies and felonies committed on the high seas, and offenses against the law of nations, make rules for the government and regulation of the land and naval forces, among others.
