Changing the Constitution
Originally Aired on May 3, 2001
Alabama's current funding crisis has renewed calls for reforming the state's 100-year old constitution. Critics argue the constitution, which has been heavily amended through the years, is outdated and ties the hands of local and county governments. APT's For The Record will look at whether the constitution should be changed, and if so, how those changes should take place.
