The growth of The Federal Bureaucracy: The Original Departments of the Federal Government were State, Treasury, War, and Attorney General


“God created human government. It is, therefore, inconceivable that God would create government and then tell His people to stay out of it.” ~ Pastor Adrian Rogers

Saturday I posted an article about the increased number of “crimes” established by the federal bureaucracy and listed the fifteen Departments created by Congress over the years to implement the laws passed by Congress. I ended with this question: Which ones are not allowed according to the Constitution?

Below are the current Departments. Below those Departments are the powers of Congress given to it by the Constitution. Match the powers of Congress up with the Departments created by Congress.

Current Departments of the Federal Government:

01) State

02) Treasury

03) Justice

04) Interior

05) Agriculture

06) Commerce

07) Labor

08) Defense

09) Health and Human Services

10) Housing and Urban Development

11) Transportation

12) Energy

13) Education

14) Veterans Affairs

15) Homeland Security

Which ones are not allowed according to the Constitution?
