Alabama lawmakers will meet Tuesday to start the 2017 regular legislative session and what a difference a year makes. Since the last regular session we’ve seen now former House Speaker Mike Hubbard convicted on corruption charges. Governor Robert Bentley became mired in scandal and faced an impeachment challenge after allegations of an affair with a staffer. Donald Trump, a president unlike any other in the modern era, is now in the White House. We talk about what those factors may mean for the legislature with Alabama Media Group columnist John Archibald.
