The Supreme Court checks the executive and legislative branches, especially in the expansion of federal power since the ratification of the U. S. Constitution.

McCulloch v. Maryland (1819) is one of the first and most important Supreme Court cases on federal power.

The “Necessary and Proper” Clause gave Congress the power to establish a national bank.
