Overview
This bill proposes a constitutional amendment requiring all public K-12 schools in Alabama to broadcast or sanction the performance of the first stanza of "The Star-Spangled Banner" at least once per week during school hours. The bill outlines a process for selecting recordings of the anthem and allows schools to choose between broadcasting a recording or having a school-sanctioned musical group perform it. A statewide election would then be held to determine whether the amendment is approved by Alabama voters.
