Supporters of Florida Constitution Revision Commission Amendment 8 focus on the part that would create school board term limits, viewing it as a popular idea that could push the proposal to the 60 percent vote needed for passage.

League president Patricia Brigham discusses her group's effort with reporter Jeff Solochek.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
