The U.S. Constitution has guided the American government for over 200 years. In this series, take a look at the Constitution, beginning with Article I, which establishes our legislative branch.

The U.S. Constitution, excepting the 27 amendments, consists of 4,408 words—about the length of a 15-page college term paper—2,294 (52%) of which are devoted to Article 1. Article I delineates the prerogatives, responsibilities, and powers of the U.S. Congress. This presentation explores Article I and the Convention discussions and ratification debates informing each of its sections.

This event, led by guest speaker Dr. Jim Gibb, will be held live over Zoom. It will also be recorded and uploaded to the St. Mary's County Library YouTube channel.

If you would like to attend this event live and/or watch the recording, please register with an email address to receive the Zoom link the day before the event. The YouTube link to the recording will be emailed to everyone who registers for this program.
