DESCRIPTION: Join the ACS Houston Lawyer Chapter for a conversation with ACS President and former Senator Russ Feingold to discuss the state of American democracy and his book, The Constitution in Jeopardy: An Unprecedented Effort to Rewrite Our Fundamental Law and What We Can Do About It.

In his book, Feingold examines this quiet effort to radically change our constitution. If realized, the plan would allow convention delegates nearly unlimited authority to draft alterations to anything from voting and free speech rights to regulatory and foreign policy powers.
