Ohio's first District Court Judge, Patrick Fischer joins us for this important session.
Fischer is a member of the Ohio Constitutional Modernization Commission.

The Ohio "Constitution" is the bedrock of our republic. Does it need to be changed? What exactly is being looked at?
We as citizens need to be aware of and be able to guard changes to it carefully!
