ALT Think you know the Constitution? Put your knowledge to the test in this interactive Constitution Day program featuring live trivia, audience participation, and discussion of some of today's most important constitutional questions. We'll explore how the Constitution structures government, protects rights, distributes power, and shapes ongoing debates in the United States. Why do reasonable people disagree about what the Constitution means? Are the Framers' checks and balances still working as intended? And how can people with very different views continue to live and govern together in a constitutional democracy? Join us for a fun, fast-paced exploration of the document that continues to shape our government, our rights, and everyday life in the United States today.
